A
former President of the Senate, Senator David Mark, has declared his intention
to contest the presidential election under the platform of the Peoples
Democratic Party in 2019.
He
picked his Presidential nomination form on Tuesday at the national secretariat
of the party in Abuja.
Mark
was President of the Senate for eight uninterrupted years between 2007 and
2015.
Speaking
with journalists after picking his forms, he promised to tackle insecurity,
economic and socio-political challenges threatening the country if elected.
He
also promised to embark on the restructuring of the country if given the
opportunity.
He
said, “Irrespective of our political persuasions, it is incontrovertible that
restructuring of the nation is an idea whose time has come.
“I
believe it will further strengthen our bond of brotherhood and unity more than
ever before because everyone would have a sense of belonging and live in
harmony in any part of Nigeria without any fear of molestation and
intimidation.”
