FROM FRED ITUA, ABUJA
Former President of the Senate, David Mark has called on his constituents to remain calm and be law abiding, following the Benue State Election Appeal Tri­bunal which ordered a re-run of Benue South Senato­rial election, yesterday.
Reacting to the Tribunal verdict, Mark told his follow­ers not to be deterred by the verdict, but be strengthened ahead of the re-run. Accord­ing to him, he won the elec­tion convincingly. “I have no doubt that my constituents would turn out en mass to vote for me again.
“What ever the situation may be, one thing I know is that my people are solidly behind me. They also appre­ciate the fact that I have done more than enough to lift up Idoma nation to a position of eminence in contemporary political history of Nigeria,” Senator Mark stated.
He insisted: “I won the election clean and clear. If we go back to the polls 100 times, I will still win convincingly.” The Appeal Tribunal , yester­day, ordered a fresh election in Benue south Senatorial district seat won by Senator Mark of the Peoples Demo­cratic Party (PDP) against Daniel Onjeh of the All Pro­gressive Congress (APC).
