Gov. Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State has urged Nigerians to vote for credible and competent leaders in the forthcoming 2023 general elections.

Mohammed, a presidential aspirant for the general elections on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), said this in Dutse while soliciting the votes of Jigawa state delegates.

He explained that if Nigerians, particularly the youth, elected credible leaders, there would be a lot of job opportunities for them.

The former FCT minister pledged to use his experience to secure and boost the country’s image in the comity of nations.

“My experience as an administrator, senator, and minister has exposed me to varied nationalities that I learned a lot from and I will use that experience and exposure to move Nigeria forward.

“I did well as a minister, I’m doing well now as governor.

“So if given the mandate, I will do well to Nigeria and Nigerians,” the former minister said.

According to him, President Muhammadu Buhari is on May 19, expected to commission a gigantic water project executed by his administration in the state.

Mohammed added that the scheme would ensure adequate water supply to the people of the state in the next 50 years.
