President of the Senate, David Mark, on Monday reassured the Idoma community that the long-awaited Apa State would be created if President Goodluck Jonathan is given another chance.
Mark gave this assurance while addressing the electorate in Ogbadibo Local Government Area, Okpokwu Local Government Area and Ado Local Government Area during his tour of the communities.
He enjoined them people to re-elect to him to the senate to enable him work towards the realisation of creation of the proposed Apa State.
He also charged them to vote for President Goodluck Jonathan and other candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which he described as the future of Nigeria.
Mark, a former governor of Niger State added that re-election of Jonathan would hasten the creation of states, including the state for Idoma people.
He told the people that the Federal Executive Council had adopted the resolutions of the Constitutional Conference, which recommended creation of states.
While thanking the people for always identifying with the PDP, he advised them not to waste their votes on the All Progressives Congress (APC) as doing so would not translate to anything positive.
Also speaking, the Deputy Governor of the state, Chief Steven Lawani, assured Mark that the people would vote for him, Jonathan and other PDP candidates.
In his remarks at the event, Minister of Interior, Mr Abba Moro, called on Ogbadibo people to persuade Daniel Onjeh, the senatorial candidate of the APC to drop his ambition.
According to Moro, who is Campaign Director of the president of the senate, Idoma people have unanimously endorsed Mark as their sole candidate for the senate.
