"Labour Stakeholders Condemn Sowore's Attacks on Bauchi Governor"

By Khalid Idris Doya

The Concerned Labour Party Northern Stakeholders have strongly condemned the recent attacks by activist and publisher, Mr. Omoyele Sowore, against Bauchi State Governor, Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, and his family.

At a press conference held on Tuesday at Talk Town Hotel, Gura Topp, Rayfield, Jos South, Plateau State, the group described Sowore's actions as "malicious, unfounded, and disgraceful."

Comrade Solomon Y. Ndam, chairman of the group, said Sowore had once again resorted to defamation, character assassination, and social media propaganda, targeting one of Northern Nigeria's most respected political leaders.

"Let it be known that his latest campaign of insults is not just an attack on Governor Bala Mohammed alone, but a direct threat to the peace, dignity, and safety of his entire family," Ndam stated.

The group praised Governor Bala Mohammed, describing him as a man of proven integrity, a nation-builder, and a statesman whose contributions to Nigerian politics are anchored on dedication and visible results.

"His achievements in Bauchi State, from infrastructure and education to healthcare, security, and youth empowerment, are widely acknowledged both locally and internationally," Ndam added.

The group expressed outrage at Sowore's actions, warning that they would no longer tolerate his disrespect, incitement, or threats against their leaders.

"We want Mr. Sowore to understand that the 19 Northern States are watching him keenly. We will no longer tolerate his disrespect, incitement, or threats against our leaders. If he fails to stop this campaign of hate, he will be made to dance to the music he is playing," the group warned.

The stakeholders reaffirmed their position, dissociating themselves from Sowore's actions and expressing solidarity with Governor Bala Mohammed and his family.

"As Northern Labour Party members and stakeholders, we remain proud to identify with visionary leaders like Governor Bala Mohammed, who continues to serve with distinction and honour," the group said.

The group also urged peace-loving Nigerians and fellow Labour Party members nationwide to condemn Sowore's actions as an abuse of free speech.

"If left unchecked, Sowore's irresponsible conduct will continue to erode the moral foundation of our democracy. We stand in solidarity with Governor Bala Mohammed and his family, and we reaffirm our collective commitment to defend the dignity of credible leaders across Nigeria. Enough is enough," they concluded.
