Shamsu Bala, the eldest son of Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed, has accused former Vice President Atiku Abubakar of undermining his father’s re-election bid in 2023, declaring that it is now time for revenge.
In a social media post on Saturday, Mr Bala claimed that Atiku has shown no willingness to reconcile with the governor ahead of the 2027 elections.
He warned that it would be difficult for Atiku to secure Governor Mohammed’s support, stating that the time had come for “settling scores.
“He (Atiku) didn’t work for us in the 2023 election; he worked for Air Marshal (the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Abubakar Sadiq). He deployed elites in Bauchi to fight us, and we narrowly won the election.
“Now he is taking us for granted, he doesn’t value us as humans, he is showing us that we are too small to call for reconciliation,” the governor’s son said in a tweet in Hausa.
He, however, did not mention the names of the Bauchi elites who teamed up against his father.
