Stop attacking APC and Wike - PDP faction warns own governor
Earlier, Legit.ng reported that the People’s Democratic Party Youth Frontiers Network (PDP-YFN) had issued a stern warning to Bauchi State Governor, Senator Bala Mohammed, urging him to cease actions they described as disgraceful to the party or step down.
The group criticized the governor's conduct, particularly his recent verbal attack on the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike.
In a statement released in Abuja and signed by its National President, Comrade Isah Ibrahim, the PDP-YFN accused Bala Mohammed of dragging the party’s reputation through the mud.
They alleged that his outbursts against Wike and the federal government’s tax reforms reflect a pattern of self-serving behavior detrimental to the PDP.
“Bala Mohammed should either stop disgracing the PDP as he is currently doing or quit the party for its loyal members and leaders to reposition it,” the statement read.
“His persistence in abusing the PDP to criticize government policies that he does not understand, as was the case with the tax reform bills, has diminished the party’s standing in the eyes of Nigerians.”
