Atiku And His Cohorts Insist That I Must Be Punished For Contesting Against Him – Senator Bala Mohammed

Bauchi State Governor, Senator Bala Mohammed has come out to say that Atiku Abubakar is sidelining him.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, sidelining him isn’t even where everything ends as Atiku has also threatened to teach him a lesson for contesting against him in the party’s presidential primaries in May.

Bala added that Atiku Abubakar and his political cohorts insist that he must be punished for his actions.

His words, “I was deliberately sidelined from the reach-out campaign of the PCC in Kaduna, which interacted with major stakeholder groups and the northern political establishments such as the Arewa Consultative Forum, Northern Elders’ Forum, Sadauna Foundation, Arewa Research and Development Progress, etcetera.”

“While Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and his political cohorts insist that I must be “punished” for contesting against him during the presidential primaries of our party. The self-acclaimed ‘kingmakers’ around the Waziri Adamawa want a pound of flesh from me because I have refused to capitulate to their unbridled sense of entitlement which is pregnant with selfishness and dictatorial tendencies.”

“The last group of the “Bala Must Go” campaigners are those whose egos have been bruised by my continued political relevance, rising national profile and the groundswell of public acclamation that have trailed unprecedented developmental strides of the PDP-led administration in the state.”
