Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed, has said that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) not only needs a southern candidate but also a Christian from the region to emerge as its presidential candidate for the 2027 election.
Mohammed, who stated this on Thursday, said that the PDP plans to avoid what he said was a mistake made by the All Progressives Congress (APC) when it opted for a same-faith ticket for the 2023 presidential poll.
“What I want to say is we have not absolutely chosen or narrowed down on any person. Everybody should know that PDP is open.
“It’s open in a manner that it is for the southerners to bring somebody, and I said with all humility, we don’t want to make the mistake of the APC,” he said
