Hehehe....As
the senatorial rerun election for Benue South draws closer, the
immediate past Senate President, Dr. David Mark’s ambition received yet
another giant boost as the entire members of the Accord party and some
members of the main opposition in Zone C, APC have come to terms with
the ruling PDP for the sole reason of returning him at the poll.
The
decision was reached today in Otukpo at the residence of Alhaji Usman
Abubakar (a.k.a. Young Alhaji), former deputy Governorship candidate for
Benue ACN in 2011.
Representatives of various organs of the
political parties from the 9 LGAs of Benue South unanimously agreed to
support Senator David Mark in the Saturday’s senatorial rerun.
According
to them, their resolve to work for the former Senate President was
premised on his antecedents and the need to defend the honour and
dignity of the Idoma nation from the “grand conspiracies ” of the
enemies of Idoma; this they said was more important than political
participation.
Addressing the mammoth crowd, Alhaji Usman said he
was overwhelmed by the turn out and charged the people to translate it
into votes for Senator Mark on Saturday.
Young Alhaji who is
believed by many as ‘traditional political rival’ of Senator Mark also
explained why he is now the “Chief Cornerstone” of Mark’s reelection,
against Dan Onjeh who hails from the same village with him.
“I am not working for David Mark but the people of zone C. I know what they want and I am working for what they want now.
“I
am happy that it’s only the voters in Zone C that can decide when it is
time up for David Mark in the Senate; not Tiv leaders, not the APC
leadership in Abuja and Makurdi. And certainly, this is not the time, he
added.”
Speakers after Speakers, the forum resolved that with
signals so far recieved from the Ortom led administration in Benue State
and with the Tiv political hegemony being orchestrated by Senator
George Akume, it would amount to sheer mischief and witchery for every
reasonable Idoma or Igede descendant to support the continous
marginalization by the Tiv elites.
Present at the meeting were
former Chairman of Otukpo LGC, Dr. Innocent Onuh, Founder of the African
Basketball Champions, Mark Mentors, former Commissioner for Science and
Technology, Hon. Godwin Adah, former Aide to Senator Mark, Hon. Francis
Omnoke, Hon. Sunday Onehi and over 4000 other participants.
