A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Bauchi State, Comrade Sabo Muhammad, has described the People's Democratic Party (PDP) as lacking direction and credibility, asserting that the party has no credible candidate capable of challenging the APC in the state in 2027.
Sabo Muhammad expressed confidence that the APC will unseat the ruling PDP in the 2027 general elections in the state, citing the opposition's lack of credible leadership.
He made this assertion during a reception organised by the SBU-Vanguard to honor newly appointed aides to Senator Shehu Buba Umar. Among the honorees were Comrade Sabo Muhammad, appointed Special Adviser on Media and Communication, Alhaji Abubakar Garba, appointed as Senior Special Assistant on Inter-party and Chieftaincy Affairs.
Sabo added that, "The PDP lacks direction in terms of fielding a credible candidate that can match ours. The APC is more united and better positioned to take over Bauchi State in 2027 from PDP administration."
He noted that the APC has a well-grounded candidate who understands the political landscape of the state, adding that a clear media strategy is already in place to drive the party's campaign.
For his part, director general of the Shehu Buba Umar Vanguard (SBU-Vanguard), Engr. Ishaq S. Dabo, reaffirmed Senator Buba's ambition to contest for governor in 2027, describing him as the most competent and credible candidate the APC can present.
"Senator Shehu Buba has the track record and leadership credentials needed to govern Bauchi. He has brought jobs, built schools and health facilities, and even constructed the first tiled road in Bauchi," Dabo said.
He added that Buba's consistent support for youth empowerment and community development has earned him admiration across all 20 local government areas of the state.
"As the only elected APC senator from Bauchi, Senator Buba has shown exceptional integrity, especially during crises like the recent floods. His actions prove he's committed to the people’s welfare and the party’s unity," he said.
The group urged the party to remain attentive to the voice of the people and support Senator Shehu Buba as the APC’s gubernatorial flag bearer in 2027.
