The Bauchi State Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Caretaker Committee aligned with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, has directed executives loyal to Governor Bala Mohammed to vacate all PDP secretariats across the state within 14 days.
The directive was issued by the Chairman of the Caretaker Committee, Jungudo Haruna Mohammed, during a press conference in Bauchi.
He warned that failure to comply would attract lawful consequences.
Jungudo said the committee was appointed by the PDP National Working Committee, NWC, to oversee the affairs of the party in Bauchi State and restore order following internal crises.
“The committee is grateful to the National Working Committee under the leadership of Alhaji Abdulrahman Mohammed for approving our appointment. We accept this responsibility and pledge to discharge it diligently in line with the party’s constitution and directives of the national leadership,” he said.
He stressed that the caretaker committee remains committed to unity, discipline, constitutionalism, and the rule of law, while pledging loyalty to the party’s national leadership and key stakeholders.
The committee also issued an apology to former Governor of Jigawa State and PDP founding member, Sule Lamido, over what it described as the embarrassment he suffered during the party’s aborted National Convention.
According to Jungudo, the apology was necessitated by the alleged refusal to sell nomination forms to Lamido, an action he attributed to Governor Bala Mohammed, the former Chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum.
