“I pledge to mobolise 100 per cent votes from Bauchi and mobilise the entire north for Atiku in 2023,” he said.

While assuring commitment to consolidate on the achievements recorded by his administration, Mohammed also solicited the support of all the electorate for his reelection and all the candidates of the party in the state for the next election.
