Bauchi State Governor, Sen Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed said that he has accepted the defeat of the PDP in the Dass State Assembly by-election won by the APC in good faith describing the outcome as the will of God.

The Governor in a statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media, Mukhtar Gidado also enjoined PDP members and supporters to accept the defeat with dignity and sportsmanship.

The governor who described the lost of the PDP as a will of God, encouraged party faithfuls not to be divided by the temporary setback.

Bala Mohammed while observing that, the loss is a lesson for all, noted that, as warriors, both his government and PDP need to plan to regain their lost ground with chivalry, tactics and team work.

The Governor stated that, “All praise and adoration belong to Allah. The loss of our party is a lesson for all of us, but no one is to be blamed.”

He went down memory lane stating that, “Remember we lost 21 House of Assembly seats and 3 Senate seats in 2019 but Allah gave us victory in the gubernatorial election.

Let us not play to the gallery by indulging in blame game, internal rancor, accusations and mistrust.”

The Governor therefore appreciated all the dogged PDP Members for their support and contributions towards ensuring the success of his administration.

It will be recalled that the INEC Returning Officer for the by-election, Prof Ahmed Mohammed late Saturday night declared the APC candidate in the by-election, Bala Ali Lukshi as winner defeating the PDP candidate, Bala Wandi.

If it were to be the satanic party dogs and baboons will be soaked in blood

Rare and commendable concession. More so coming from a PDP governor/stalwart. Unlike the usual 'democracy is in danger' rants that were are used to being served after an election loss. I guess its fair to say our democracy is making baby-step progress. Na pesin be Trump wey still refuse to concede.

For once.

Trump should come and learn

Bleep politicians

This is rare in this part of the world for a candidate or political party to concede defeat without ascribing it to rigging and widespread voter fraud.

This is indeed commendable and worthy of emulation even by Donald Trump.

Let's teach America democracy!

I don't give a Bleep!

First time in history that PDP won't complain about election,well their online urchins will soon be here to tear this man into pieces.
