Former Senate President David
Mark has joined the presidential race, promising to fix the economy in two
years.
He retired as a brigadier general
in the Nigerian army.
Mark said judging by the number
of people who have picked the PDP presidential nomination form, “you can
comfortably say that PDP is the choice part in the country”.
Senate President Bukola Saraki;
former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar; Aminu Tambuwal, governor of Sokoto state;
Rabiu Kwankwaso, former governor of Kano state, are among the bigwigs who have
picked PDP presidential form.
“Anybody who has come here to
collect the forms has a blueprint; the blueprint which we title 7:30
representing just two years,” he said.
“In two years, if given the
opportunity, we will turn the economy of this country round, we will solve
these security problems, we will bring Nigerians together. The level of
distrust in the government today has never been experienced in the history of
this country.
“I have a very good military
background and has been in politics since 1998. I think I have got the
credentials to be able to do what I have promised my team.
“Obviously there are priority
areas and restructuring is one of them. I think the time has come to
restructure this country.”
On Monday, Paul Mumeh, spokesman
of the ex-senate president, revealed that there was the possibility of
Mark running for the highest office in the land.
