We have something in common- Bala Mohammed says after visit from G-5 Governors

Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed has said that he shares something in common with the five agitated PDP Governors Known as the G-5 Governors led by Nyesom Wike of Rivers state.

The Governors had travelled to Bauchi State to pay a visit to Bala Mohammed who had complained of been sidelined and threatened by the presidential candidate of the party, Atiku Abubakar

Speaking after a closed-door meeting with the Governors, Bala said; “The governors of G5, they called themselves ‘Integrity Group’. I am supposed to be with them but they excommunicated me for some reason best known to them. But I am highly connected with them, each and every one of them. There is no day that I don’t call to speak with each of them.

“Because in politics, you go with the people that you share something in common with. The presidency that we ran where my brother was defeated and he defeated me has brought us close. Of course, at the Governors’ forum, one thing I appreciate about them is that they look at your challenges. Even though they are not running for a second term, they are always worried.

“We have something in common. They know that I have challenges of anti-party, challenges of some treachery and mischief and of course politics is about all these but when you know that you have people behind you, of that stature and that calibre you feel fulfilled.”
