The Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed, has pledged to support the eventual winner of the Peoples Democratic Party primaries for the 2023 presidency.
He added that he would only do this if the candidate was better than him.
Mohammed made this disclosure in Gombe shortly after meeting the PDP delegates at the state secretariat, where he told journalists that his experience and disposition to issues were better than anyone else’s.
According to him, he had at different times being a roving journalist, permanent secretary, editor, senator, minister, and governor, stressing that he had the magic wand to solving Nigeria’s challenges.
Mohammed said, “I’m a democrat. I have exceeded my personal expectations. I was just like you scooping for news some few years ago. In my life, I have become permanent secretary, editor. So, whoever emerges other than myself, who knows how to do it, I will bring my knowledge and contribution to him so that he will succeed. I will support whoever emerges.
“I’m someone tutored by destiny, put by God through all the mills of leadership as a civil servant to the position of director at the federal level, to legislature in the Senate, to the Federal Executive Council, and now at the sub-national level as a governor; who understands the challenges, as a technocrat, I will bring my experience to bear because I have been tested and trusted.
Mohammed further pledged to unite the country if elected.
