The Bala Mohammed Campaign Organisation says the Bauchi
governor will drop his presidential bid if former President Goodluck Jonathan
is chosen by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as its presidential
standardbearer.
Jonathan is yet to declare for presidency, but there have
been calls for him to do so on the platform of the All Progressives Congress
(APC).
The former president asked his supporters to “watch out” for
his next political move.
In a statement on Monday, Udenta Udenta, spokesman of the
Bala Mohammed Presidential Organisation, said the Bauchi governor has begun
wooing delegates ahead of the party’s presidential primary poll.
“Bala Mohammed will
step down for former President Jonathan if and when he becomes the flag bearer
of any political party,” Udenta said.
“Northern elders have reached their consensus and their
message was clear. The Bala Mohammed campaign is done with that issue. It is
over. We are now reaching out to each and every delegate of the PDP with the
Nigeria first agenda message.
“From Mohammed’s selection as the Consensus Presidential
Candidate of the North and his successful screening at the PDP presidential
screening exercise led by David Mark, shows that he is confident that the coast
is clear to win the primary election decisively through a robust and passionate
engagement with the delegates.
“The Bala Mohammed
team is revved up and ready. We will be showcasing his resounding leadership
attributes as well as popularizing his Nigeria First Governance Vision that is
captured in a compact policy document.”
