The immediate past Senate President, David Mark, has stated that his victory at the Benue South rerun election is a renewed mandate to continue to serve God and humanity without blemish.
The senator was quoted as making the remark when he received his certificate of return at the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) headquarters on Monday in Abuja.
“For the confidence, trust and love for me, I will continue to serve honestly with all my heart. My actions will be guided always with the fear of God.
“My election is unique. I hold this certificate in trust and for service to my people and Nigerians alike. I will serve honestly and with the fear of God”, Mark said in a statement released and signed by his media assistant, Paul Mumeh.
Handing over the certificate to Mr. Mark, INEC national commissioner, Lawrence Nwuruku, assisted by his colleague, Solomon Soyebi, said the certificate was a confirmation that he won the Benue South Senatorial rerun election according to the rules and regulations guiding the conduct of elections.
The former Senate president praised INEC for a good job so far but called for improvement in future polls.
He said the electioneering process should be less cumbersome to enable more qualified Nigerians participate.
