President
of the Senate David Mark has denied reports of his preparations for the
2015 presidential elections, saying such reports are the handiwork of
mischief makers.
According to a statement by his Special Adviser on
Media and Publicity, Kola Ologbondiyan, on Tuesday, the reports of his
2015 ambition were efforts to create disaffection between him and
President Goodluck Jonathan.
The statement read in part, “Our attention has been
drawn to the actions of some mischief makers who are bent on causing
disaffection between President Goodluck Jonathan and the President of
the Senate, Senator David Mark.
“The trademark of this group is to consistently
announce a presidential ambition or interest on behalf of the President
of the Senate.
“For this set of mischief makers, the premises of the
National Assembly is either flooded with “Mark for President’ forms or
distinguished senators are forming groups to canvass the said
presidential interest. Nothing can be farther from the truth.”
“It is imperative to state and emphatically too, that
Senator Mark and President Jonathan are on the same page in the onerous
task of providing democratic dividends for Nigerians.”
