2027: Ex-gov Mu’azu cautions next administration against probing Gov Bala

The incoming administration in Bauchi State has been advised not to waste time probing the outgoing administration of Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, but to instead consolidate on the positive developments already in place.

The advice was given by a former Governor of Bauchi State, Ahmed Adamu Mu’azu, while speaking at a public lecture organised as part of activities marking the 50th anniversary of the state’s creation. The event was held on Saturday at the Ahmadu Bello International Conference Centre, Bauchi.

Mu’azu said he believes in the continuity of projects that are beneficial to the people of the state, stressing that there is no need to waste valuable governance time on probing past administrations.

He acknowledged that the Bala Mohammed–led administration has performed well, citing the spread of infrastructure across the state as evidence.

The former governor also urged those aspiring to the governorship in 2027 to develop clear and attractive blueprints that would spell out their proposed development programmes.

He declared, “I will only support anyone who has a good and achievable blueprint, someone who knows what he is doing, someone who is coming with the idea of building on the structure on the ground.”

According to him, “I am ready to support anyone who has the best idea of what good governance is. I am ready to support such a person irrespective of political party.”

He added, “If you have a good blueprint and you want my support, come and let us talk about it. If I am convinced, I will support you.”

Speaking on his expectations for the next 50 years, Mu’azu said, “I want a better Bauchi State where there will be unity and support for one another.”

Other former governors and military administrators who spoke at the event shared their experiences in office and expressed satisfaction with the level of development achieved under the administration of Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed.
