Tuesday, August 18, 2026 - Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State has charged political actors not to treat election as a do-or-die affair.
Mohammed urged politicians to accept the results of
elections in good faith and not see it as a do-or-die affair.
He made the assertion, while addressing journalists after
voting at Polling Unit 008, Bakin Dutse, which is located at Yelwan Duguri
Model Primary School in Duguri District, Alkaleri Local Government Area, in the
ongoing local government election in the state.
He said: “I am really impressed by how smoothly the voting
process went and how many people came out to vote.
“It’s really heartening to see so many women participating
in large numbers to exercise their constitutional rights.
“Elections are not a do-or-die affair. Our topmost concern
should always be ensuring lasting peace, safety, and overall progress in Bauchi
State.”
The governor said his team is still focused on making sure
democracy works well at the local government level and ensuring that everyone
follows the law.
He thanked the election workers for being well-prepared and
appreciated the voters for showing the maturity, discipline, and sense of duty
he talked about.
