We are 100 per cent behind Yakubu Adamu and his running mate. We are behind every APM candidate. We don\u2019t have anywhere to go other than APM,\u201d Mohammed said.\n<\/p>\n<p>He dismissed claims in some quarters that he was supporting another party or candidate, insisting that such reports were false.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose lying that we are supporting another person should stop deceiving people.

Nobody should deceive you that Bala is PDP. I am not PDP. I was ANPP, I was PDP, and today I am APM and all of us are APM. That is the message. We respect people, but people should respect us,\u201d he stated.\n<\/p>\n<p>The governor said he was tired of opposition politics, noting that despite scarce resources, his administration had achieved significant development with the loyalty and support of the citizenry.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou have really given me loyalty. You have supported me, and you have persevered. The resources were very scarce, yet we used what we had to accomplish much,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He assured residents that with the capacity and pedigree of the party\u2019s leadership, the state would successfully navigate the political terrain and thrive as a sub-national entity.\n<\/p>\n<p>He added that the campaign council would be guided on the party\u2019s strategy and direction in due course to ensure victory.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith total confidence in your capacity, dedication, and patriotism, it is now my honour and privilege to formally inaugurate you as the Bauchi State APM Campaign Council and the Local Government Campaign Committees for the 2027 general elections, to the glory of Almighty Allah and for the continued progress and development of Bauchi State.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>He wished the members wisdom, strength, and success as they embark on their assignment.\n<\/p>\n<p>Also speaking during the inauguration, the State Caretaker Committee Chairman of the APM, Shehu Adaji, charged the newly inaugurated members to work relentlessly to secure victory for the party from top to bottom in 2027.<\/p>\n<p>Adaji explained that the inauguration served as a formal mandate for members to return to their respective wards and local government areas to embark on intensive, door-to-door grassroots mobilisation.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs you return after this inauguration, ensure you go out and move from house to house, door to door, to guarantee that APM delivers everything from top to bottom in 2027\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>He also praised Governor Mohammed whom he described as the national leader of the party as a formidable politician with national recognition whose political strength is firmly rooted in his home state of Bauchi.<\/p>\n<div class=\"bday-read-also\">\n<h4>Related News<\/h4>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"bday-ad bday-ad--gam\" id=\"bday-ad-2\" data-bday-ad=\"\" data-unit=\"bd-body-2\" data-placement=\"below_share_buttons\" data-partner=\"gam\" data-category=\"display\" data-device=\"all\"><span class=\"bday-ad__label\">Advertisement<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"bday-google-badges\">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/preferences\/source?q=businessday.ng\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Bala-Mohammed-affirms-full-commitment-to-APM-ahead-of-2027-polls-Businessday-NG.jpg\" alt=\"Add BusinessDay as a preferred source on Google\"\/><br \/>\n\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/publications\/CAAqKQgKIiNDQklTRkFnTWFoQUtEbUoxYzJsdVpYTnpaR0Y1TG01bktBQVAB?hl=en-NG&amp;gl=NG&amp;ceid=NG%3Aen\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><br \/>\n\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/globalnigerianews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/Bala-Mohammed-affirms-full-commitment-to-APM-ahead-of-2027-polls-Businessday-NG-1.jpg\" alt=\"Follow BusinessDay on Google News\"\/><br \/>\n\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p>Source: <\/p>\n<div class=\"nSourse\">Businessday NG<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bauchi State Governor, Senator Bala Mohammed, has declared that he and his supporters are fully committed to the Allied People\u2019s Movement (APM) ahead of the 2027 general elections.
