Bauchi Governor Bala Mohammed Poised to Leave PDP for APC Amid Party Tussle

Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State is reportedly set to defect from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) on Tuesday. Sources say he arrived at this decision after several meetings with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and other APC leaders in recent weeks. The deal reportedly includes a 60/40 power-sharing arrangement and a promise that Mohammed can vie for a Senate seat in the future. One key sticking point remains whether the governor will have the authority to nominate his own successor. Party insiders suggest the President prefers that the APC’s Bauchi structure stay under collective party control rather than the influence of a single individual due to the state’s political weight.
