Now That He Clinch The Certificate: Then What Next? -By Abdulrahman Yunusa

The fact that Election is the major hallmark of Democracy is enough to be an obvious reason for anyone that think he/she can cheat the process under a Democratic state to make it to any political seat that requires such periodic election is but an outright implausible and wishful thought.

Meanwhile, unlike other affairs, Elections are being conducted across the nation occasionally ( After each four years in the case of Nigeria ), and its an avenue upon which through it the political actors are competing and making it to a particular political position in government.

Therefore, the reemergence of Governor Bala Muhammad for the second time as the Governor-elect of Bauchi state won’t be an exception since he passed all the above required constitutional procedures in the course of this fierce political battle to emerged the champion of the 2023 governorship poll.

Yet, this hasn’t come to me with surprise for he met all the prerequisite requirement one need to make it for the second term, his handworks are there manifesting themselves from all angles of governance. But the hurdles he went through to make this tasky and yet glamorous journey possible is what left me befuddled.

Once more, I’m Congratulating His Excellency Governor Bala Muhammad of Bauchi state for making such a historic as well as spectacular political breakthrough against all odds. You have indeed shown how shrewd you are politically.

For muzzling, silencing, dismantling and absolutely burying the politics of God Fatherism in the state, i can’t relent to thank you for such magnificent job. Hence, permit me to boldly inform your detractors that you have set a precedence upon which the future generation must care to imitate in their future respective politics affairs in the state.

However, without impacting the lives of your people this feat couldn’t have been achievable by you at this tragic moment. For you have gone through all the series of political threats from friends, masters and foes and you dismayingly thrash them down thereby making them irrelevance in the game once more time.

Giving the fact that His Excellency Governor Bala had received his certificate of return for the second time, shall we inquire the shallow minded gang who over the past weeks have been parading and making some baseless claims that their man is coming? Coming from where to where for God sake?

Is this not enough for them to burry their face in shame, is this not enough for them to retreat from making further gibberish in the name of mandate reclamation through the court of law upon baseless allegations, why couldn’t they stop making themselves a ridiculous object in the world of politics ?

Thank God for making such a rare move, throwing such a formidable political gang un to the dungeon of history amidst critical moment. Thus this success has truly reflect the outcome of your tireless effort, resilience, hard work, perseverance, dedication and above all the incessant prayer you stick to.

I wish that you will maintain the tempo and make the state be among the top ones infrastructurally and economically. I further pray that the second tenure will be more productive to the citizens of the state entirely. And may the resources of state be judiciously utilized for the benefit of all.

May Bauchi succeed ones again under the didactic watch of governor Bala Muhammad Kauran Bauchi.
