Tongues have been wagging on how one of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential hopeful, Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State was screened for a second term at the PDP governorship screening panel on Thursday, April 28th, 2022.
Mohammed had a week ago, been selected alongside Senator Bukola Saraki as the consensus candidate of the north, by a PDP wise men committee led by former military president, Gen. Ibrahim Babangida.
Insiders say Mohammed was further persuaded to step down for Saraki, whom the committee believes has a brighter chance in the presidential contest.
