Senate President David Mark survived a grilling electoral
battle against Senator Barnabas Gemade of the All
Progressives Congress to pick the ticket for the Benue
South Senatorial District in the National Assembly.
Earlier report had suggested that Mark, representing the
Peoples Democratic Party, who is seeking his fifth term in
the Senate, might have been defeated by Gemade, a former
National Chairman of the PDP.
Latest result has however indicated that the Senate
President has survived his toughest battle ever since he
started contesting the ticket from the zone since the return
to democratic rule in the country in 1999.
Meanwhile, Governor Aliyu Wammakko of Sokoto State
(APC); his Plateau State counterpart, Jonah Jang(PDP);
Abia State Governor, Theodore Orji(PDP); and Governor
Rabiu Kwankwaso of Kano State(APC), have won their
Senatorial election to represent their respective zones in
their states. CLICK HERE TO READ FULL AND TOUCHING NIGERIAN CELEBRITIES BIOGRAPHY AND SCANDALS
