Well, that is what he said!

Senate President, David Mark, in Abuja on Wednesday, said he joined politics in order to serve God and humanity.

Mark said this at a thanksgiving service organised in his honour by Christian Legislators Fellowship International, National Assembly.

He added that through the prayers of the people, God saw him through the years and ascribed his achievements from the military era to the present dispensation to God’s grace.

He recalled that the Senate had five presidents between 1999 and 2007 but he remained president for a period of eight years, from 2007 to 2015.

“I joined politics to serve not only humanity but to serve God; I chose to be a team player in order to carry the senators along and I call each of the senators my boss.

“People of God, I cherish your prayers so much; it is not yet over until it is over by God so continue to pray for me.”
