APC Group Slams Bala Mohammed Over PDP’s 2027 Comeback Claim!

Reported by Marian Opeyemi Fasesan | Sele Media Africa

A media arm aligned with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), the APC Media Network, has strongly criticized a recent statement by Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed, in which he expressed confidence that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would return to power in 2027 despite waves of defections within its ranks.

What Governor Mohammed Said

Governor Bala Mohammed recently told reporters that despite defections from the PDP to the APC, he remains optimistic that the party will recover and reclaim the presidency in 2027. He stressed that the defections are a challenge but should not be seen as a fatal blow to his party’s prospects. [1]

APC Media Network Responds

• The APC Media Network faulted the governor’s remarks, accusing him of prematurely declaring victory and raising false hopes among PDP supporters.
• In their statement, they argued that such predictions are disruptive and misleading, especially as defections continue to erode PDP’s structure.
• The group demanded that Mohammed desist from making speculative pronouncements about 2027, calling attention to the political realities and momentum favoring the APC. The Broader Political Stakes
• Bala Mohammed’s assertion has stirred tension within opposition circles, where defections have intensified in recent months.
• The APC’s rebuttal signals how sensitive and tightly contested the narrative for 2027 has become.
• Political analysts note that public claims of a 2027 resurgence by opposition figures may be as much about morale and messaging as actual electoral strategy.
