The Bala Mohammed Campaign Organisation has stated that 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.<\/p>\n

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)<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The former president asked his supporters to \u201cwatch out\u201d for his next political move.<\/p>\n

Spokesman of the Bala Mohammed Presidential Organisation, Udenta Udenta via a statement released on Monday said\u00a0the Bauchi governor has begun wooing delegates ahead of the party\u2019s presidential primary poll.<\/p>\n

\u201cBala Mohammed will step down for former President Jonathan if and when he becomes the flag bearer of any political party,\u201d Udenta said.<\/p>\n

\u201cNorthern 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom Mohammed\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe 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.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
