The immediate-past senate president, David Mark, has said he would
triumph in the February 20 rerun for the Benue South Senatorial District
on the strength of the support of his constituents and God, according
to Premium Times.
Mr. Mark stated this when two groups – Idoma Dreams and Idoma Young Professionals – paid him a solidarity visit on Wednesday. The Court of Appeal had last year sacked Mr. Mark from the Senate and ordered the Independent National Electoral Election to conduct a fresh election in the district.
His victory in the March 28 National Assembly election was challenged by the candidate of the All Progressive Congress, Daniel Onjeh. Mr. Mark told members of the groups that he was deeply touched by their visit and the uncommon show of brotherhood and solidarity, stressing that he would be victorious because of their support.
“I am deeply touched by this uncommon solidarity. Let me also remind you that in going about the campaign for me, please always be law-abiding. I need you to be peaceful during the pre-election, Election Day and post-election.
“Like I mentioned before, no election is worth injury or loss of life. I crave for a peaceful conduct of election at all times. The choice of representation resides with the people and ultimately God.
“I want to thank you for believing in my leadership and understanding that credible representation at the senate is of utmost importance.
“By the grace of God, we shall triumph at the rerun election. I will defend the interest of our people at all times,” he said.
Mr. Mark assured his visitors that he was irrevocably committed to the development of Benue South and beyond, and would do everything legitimate to improve their lots.
