” This was the former governor who dine and wine with the opposition, People’s Democratic party ( PDP), in the state , a well known PDP’s mole in the state.
He was suspended and expelled by the All Progressive Congress (APC), in his ward for anti- party, there is no record that he has been re- registered as a member All Progressive Congress ( APC), in Bauchi state ” the group stated.

Gololo warned of the imminent danger ahead of the 2023 election in Bauchi state” The impression that meeting has created is that the party in Bauchi state is rewarding ant- party and other members may hobnob with the opposition without any regards for the outcome of such meeting”

” We are calling on the presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Shetima to beware of future meetings without consultation with stakeholders as other members who have been working for the A PC in Bauchi may toe the path of the former governor who is working hard to stop the governorship candidate of the party in Bauchi state, Sadiq Abubakar from clinching the governorship seat in 2023″

” We are not comfortable with that meeting and we condemned it for whatever purpose it was meant to achieve “
