The Bauchi State chapter of the Labour Party (LP) has distanced itself from the Forum of the Nineteen States, including the FCT Chairmen and Secretaries, denouncing it as non-existent.

In a joint statement issued on Friday by the acting Chairman Mohammed Sabitu Aliyu and acting Secretary Danlami Idi Danladi, they refuted claims made by certain individuals who claimed to represent the Northern States’ executives.

The individuals, they clarified, were not recognised as leaders and were even removed from their positions due to actions against the party’s interests.

Mohammed Sabitu Aliyu stated that “the attention of Bauchi State Labour Party Executives has been drawn to the news broadcast by AIT and some online and social media in which a few individuals claimed to be the Northern States’ Chairmen and Secretaries made some statements which are hereby refuted.”

The AG Chairman added, “We categorically say that they are not the Executives of the 19 Northern States, and especially their spokeswoman was deposed from her position due to his antiparty activities when the party was battling to reclaim her stolen mandate.”

He added that “the acclaimed persons are a group of disgruntled, frustrated, and treacherous people who worked against the party’s efforts in times of need; furthermore, they are political power mongers seeking attention through such malicious and baseless claims in the name of the northern region.”

He also affirmed its support for the National Working Committee’s decision to zone the presidential flag bearer position to the southern region in 2027.
