DEPUTY leader of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) elders forum in Benue State, Chief Abu Shuluwa has called on Tiv politicians not to interfere with the forthcoming rerun election between former senate president, Senator David Mark and All Progressive Congress candidate, APC candidate, Mr Daniel Onjeh.
Shuluwa, who spoke with newsmen noted that the people of Benue South senatorial district have the exclusive right to decide on who represent them and wondered why Tiv politicians now scramble to interfere with the affair of Idoma people.
According to him, ‘PDP will win Benue South not minding that people are jittery about David Mark, particularly, my people of Tiv extraction who have no vote in the zone. My advice to them (the Tiv politicians) is that they should leave the zone to decide who represents them at the senate.’
The Tiv-born politician also enjoined the Idoma people not mortgage their future to ‘a puppet who will be errand boy to another at the red chamber’, adding, ‘Senate is a place for matured, strong hearted, vibrant and experienced persons.’
