POLITICS DIGEST– A political organizations for transparency and good governance in Nigeria, Bala Abdulkadir Muhammad vanguard (BAM-V), has said that Nigerians are not enjoying their stitutionally guaranteed right to government’s primary responsibility of security and welfare.
In a Press briefing Sunday at the inauguration of the Kano State chapter of the movement, Chairman of the Chapter, Adnan Mukhtar Adam, declared that the current Bauchi State Governor Bala Abdulkadir Mohammad (Kauran Bauchi) posseses what it takes to lead Nigeria come 2023, noting that as the general election fast approaches, it is obvious that what Nigerians need is a leader who, apart from being a detraibalised, must have the track record of service, commitment and readinnrss to serve the people and bring an end to the myriad problems confronting the Nation.
According to Mr. Adnan, “It is an open secret that Nigeria does not only lag behind in terms of having both material and human resources which are in abundant but the bane of the country is selfless, focused and good leaders to harness the resources for the greatness of the country. This is equally true of the fact that the country has a lot of policies and programmes that could have taken her to greater heights if well implemented by a leadership with enough political will.
“However, it is saddening today that despite her potential for greatness, the country is facing a lot of problems, ranging from insurgency, banditry, kidnapping, economic crimes to corruption as well as many others. All these combined, no doubt, have retarded our progress as a people, given the fact that a lot of time, energy and financial resources are being expended on tackling these unfortunate problems.”

BAM-V emphasised that Governor Bala Mohammad posseses what it takes to lead Nigeria due to numerous reasons among which includes his patroitism, which was amply demonstrated in 2010 when despite being an ANPP member, he put party politics aside for Nigeria’s interest to prevail when he moved the “Doctrine of Necessity” Motion on the floor of the Senate which eventually paved the way for the then Vice-President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan to emerge acting President when the then President Umaru Musa Yar’aduwa was incapacitated.
It said further that, “his doggedness and ability to fix the numerous challenges confronting the Nation was seen in his outstanding and impeccable performance as the FCT Minister for consecutive years, which is yet to be surpassed till date, years after he left office.
“Senator Bala Mohammed is a detraibalised Nigerian devoid of nepotism and has been able to build bridges across the country over the years. His appointments as FCT Minister reflected this, with people from every parts of the country given the opportunity to serve their Fatherland. As a Governor today, he still does this.
“We are of the strong view that age is on his side and he is a politician without extra baggage, competent transparent and mendeleyev resourceful. He equally possesses the political sagacity and will to not only confront but also successful tacklethe problems bedevilling the country today. As a sitting Governor,Senator Mohammed is currently demonstrating this in Bauchi State where he has been able to bring developmental progress to state and making it most peaceful state in the North-East despitethe zone being the hot bed of insurgency in Nigeria today.”
While mulling for the emergence of the next nigerian President from the North East region, BAM-V expressed strong believe that the former FCT Minister is the solely competent, transparent and immensely resourceful leader Nigeria is in need of to steer the ship of its affairs through transparency and good governance, calling on the PDP Family including all Former Presidential aspirants Atiku Abubakar, AminuTambuwa, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, Hassan Dankwambo, Sule Lamido among others, to support the candidacy of Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed for the overall interest of the nation.
