Former Governor Mohammed Umaru Bago has resolved the political disagreement between Senator Mohammed Sani Musa, representing the Niger East senatorial district, and former Director General of the National Biosafety Management Agency, Barr. Bello Bawa Bwari, who were both aspirants for the Senate under the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The former governor, alongside some critical political leaders including his deputy Comrade Yakubu Garba, the APC National Vice Chairman North Central Zone Alh. Mu’azu Bawa Rijau, and the APC state Chairman Alh. Aminu Musa Bobi, held a meeting with the duo.

The strategic meeting took place at the official residence of the farmer, Government House, in Minna.

During the meeting chaired by the former governor, a common ground was reached, laying to rest all issues regarding the APC flag bearer for the 2027 general elections and making the incumbent a consensus candidate of the party for the Niger East senatorial district.

The move by the former governor was to ensure peace, political stability, and deepened internal democracy in the APC.

The development also reflects the former governor’s firm commitment to democratic principles and dialogue in resolving differences amicably.

The amicable resolution of the the political disagreement would no doubt lead to the success of the party in the general elections in 2027.
