Former Senate President David Mark, who turned 68 years yesterday, has pledged to continue to serve God and devote the rest of his life to the less privileged in the society.


He spoke at a thanksgiving service to mark the occasion.
But it was devoid of fanfare in solidarity with the people of his constituents –the Agatus- who were recently massacred by Fulani herdsmen.


Mark’s spokesman, Paul Mumeh, quoted the senator as saying: “My heart bleeds when I see my people massacred in Agatu. I am saddened that suddenly our people became refugees in their homes.


“I pray that peace returns as soon as possible so that the survivors and all the displaced people scattered in various internally displaced persons (IDPs) camps return to their homes.”
He urged the state and Federal Governments to “do everything possible to resettle the beleaguered Agatu people.”
He added: ”We must do all we can to live in peace in Nigeria. I earnestly crave for a crime-free society where all citizens are free to pursue their legitimate ambitions anywhere without molestation.”


Mark said it was only in a peaceful environment that meaningful development could be achieved.
He added that as a part of his dedication to God, he had forgiven all those who offended him in one way or the other.

Thanks for being the worst thing (representative) to happen to the Idoma nation. But are you 68, really?

Only the few gullible ones in the Idoma land praise you.
