The stakeholders also resolved to work in synergy to secure the re-election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the victory of the party’s Bauchi State governorship candidate, Muhammad Abdullahi Abubakar, SAN, and all other APC candidates in the forthcoming elections.
They further adopted the slogan, “APC Sak” (APC from Top to Bottom), as their political position ahead of the 2027 general elections.
In a statement issued on Thursday and signed by the Chairman of APC Bauchi State Chapter, Alhaji Muhammad A. Hassan, said the resolutions were reached at a meeting of critical APC stakeholders in Bauchi State held in Abuja on November 4, 2026.
The stakeholders said strategic decisions were taken in the interest of the party and all its candidates.
The statement disclosed that the meeting was chaired by former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara, who represented the party’s leader in the state and Minister of Health, Prof. Muhammad Ali Pate.
“With gratitude to Almighty Allah, the APC Bauchi State Chapter has successfully held a meeting of critical stakeholders led by the Honourable Minister, Prof. Muhammad Ali Pate, who was unavoidably absent but duly represented by Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara as chairman of the meeting,” the statement said.
Those in attendance included former Bauchi State Governor and the party’s 2027 governorship candidate, M.A. Abubakar, SAN, his running mate, Hon. Farouk Mustapha, as well as all APC candidates for the Senate, House of Representatives and State House of Assembly.
