Governor Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed has indicated a possible defection to the African Democratic Congress, ADC due to the lingering crisis in the People’s Democratic Party, PDP.
The Governor made this known after a closed-door meeting with a delegation of the ADC party led by a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Engr. Babachir David Lawal at the Presidential Lodge, Bauchi.
Governor Bala Mohammed stated that despite exhausting all avenues for reconciliation within the PDP at both national and state levels, no meaningful progress has been achieved.
The Governor described the ADC as a “preferred destination,” noting however that consultations and negotiations are still ongoing to ensure a well-informed decision.
Earlier, leader of the ADC delegation, Babachir David Lawal, said their visit was at the instance of the party’s National Chairman, David Mark aimed at inviting Governor Bala Mohammed to join the ADC ahead of the 2027 general elections.
He described the Governor as a fearless political figure whose entry into the party would strengthen its chances in future elections.
Engr. Babachir also emphasized the need for opposition’s unity, warning that failure to consolidate efforts could have serious consequences for Nigeria’s future.
