APC governorship candidate for Bauchi State’s 2027 election, Mohammed Abubakar (SAN), dissolves his campaign structure at the local government level, affecting coordinators in all 20 LGAs. The decision is announced in a statement released on Thursday by the M.A. Strategy Committee and signed by its Head of Media, Umar Ibrahim Sade. The committee does not provide specific reasons for the dissolution, but orders all affected coordinators to stop campaign operations immediately in their respective LGAs while awaiting further directives. Coordinators are instructed to hand over campaign materials, documents, and other items in their possession to the committee’s secretariat by July 16, 2026. The statement also acknowledges the contributions of coordinators, ward mobilisers and volunteers, describing their efforts across Bauchi State’s 323 wards as valuable. The committee says supporters will be informed about a new phase of political engagement at the appropriate time and asks party members and supporters to remain calm and united. The move is reported against the backdrop of alleged internal APC tensions in Bauchi following the party’s 2027 primaries, including complaints about candidate selection and alleged backing for Abubakar by certain political figures.

The All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate for the 2027 election in Bauchi State, Mohammed Abubakar (SAN), has dissolved his campaign structure at the local government level, sacking coordinators across the state’s 20 Local Government Areas (LGAs). The decision was announced in a statement issued on Thursday by the M.A. Strategy Committee and signed by its Head of Media, Umar Ibrahim Sade, a former Commissioner for Information. Although the committee did not disclose the reason for the dissolution, it directed all affected coordinators to immediately cease operations in their respective local government areas pending further directives. They were also instructed to hand over all campaign materials, documents, and other items in their possession to the committee’s secretariat on or before July 16, 2026. The statement commended the coordinators, ward mobilisers, and volunteers for their contributions, describing their efforts across the 323 wards of Bauchi State as invaluable. It assured supporters that a new phase of political engagements would soon be unveiled, with details to be communicated at the appropriate time. The committee appealed to party members and supporters to remain calm, united, and committed to Abubakar’s governorship aspiration. The development comes amid reported internal crisis within the Bauchi State chapter of the APC following the 2027 primaries. Some aggrieved members have alleged that candidates were imposed rather than elected through direct primaries. Certain political groups have also accused the Coordinating Minister of Health, Prof. Muhammad Ali Pate, and former Governor Isa Yuguda of backing Abubakar’s emergence as the party’s candidate. Abubakar, a former governor of the state, lost his re-election bid in 2019 to the incumbent Governor, Bala Mohammed of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
