The Governor said Nigeria needs the tactical prowess of the PDP to help put back the nation on track for a prosperous day ahead after years of APC incompetence.
He called on PDP members in Bauchi who felt unfairly treated at the recently concluded primaries in the state to make their case before the committee, assuring that the committee will carry out its mandate without fair or favour to any section of the party members in the state.
Governor Bala said it is a norm that after every primary election a portion of members of the party will hold grievances against the outcome of the election, adding that the internal democratic process within the PDP afforded an enabling playing field to all members.
