“I will stay in the PDP to contribute my quota to the rebuilding and
restructuring of the party. This is democracy. Winners emerge and the
losers goes back to the drawing board and rejuvenate.”
SENATE President, David Mark, yesterday ruled out the possibility of
him defecting to the All Progressives Congress, APC, which will have the
majority members in the 8th senate, saying that he had no reason to
jump ship.
There have been speculations that the Senate President
and his Deputy, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, were contemplating dumping the
Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, for the APC, so as to remain relevant in
the leadership of the National Assembly.
About 24 hours after the
Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu had vowed to remain with the
PDP despite the fact it will be in the minority in the 8th senate to
commence June this year, Senator Mark said even if every other person
would leave the PDP, he would still be the last person to do that.
Speaking at the Church Service to Mark his 67th birthday at St.
Mulumba’s Catholic Church, Apo, in Abuja, Senator said, “I have no
reason to jump ship. I will not leave the PDP. I will be the last man
standing for the PDP. The party gave me the platform to be where I am
today.
“I will stay in the PDP to contribute my quota to the
rebuilding and restructuring of the party. This is democracy. Winners
emerge and the losers goes back to the drawing board and rejuvenate.”
He stated further “The outcome of the presidential election in favor of
APC is the will of God and majority of NIGERIANS. We, in the PDP have
accepted the result in good faith.
“Those drifting to the APC now
are fair weather friends of the PDP. They are seeking new green areas.
When the PDP bounces back, they will seek another return to the PDP.
“I believe in PDP manifestos. I will work hard to bring the party back
on track. What is important is that we have established democracy in
Nigeria.”
Speaking at the occasion, the Senate Leader, Victor
Ndoma-Egba, SAN, eulogized the Senate President for the wisdom he had
used to pilot the affairs of the National Assembly adding that his
(Mark) continued contributions to socio- economic and political
development of the country cannot be undermined.
Also speaking,
Senator Tunde Ogbeha prayed God to grant the Senate President good
health, long life and courage in the years ahead.
Clerk to the
National Assembly, Alhaji Salisu Maikasuwa commended the Senate
president for his resourceful leadership and harmonious working
relationship between the management and the political leadership.
In his homily, the Parish Priest of St. Mulumba Catholic Chaplaincy,
Rev. Fr. Innocent Jooji said only God determines the destiny of all
human and that “whatever the future holds for each and everyone of us is
determined by God, we should continue to have faith in God."
