"What ever the situation may be, one thing I know is that my people are solidly behind me . They also appreciate the fact that I have done more than enough to lift up Idoma nation to a position of eminence in the contemporary political history of Nigeria," the statement read.

Continuing, Mark said, 'I won the election clean and clear. If we go back to the polls 100 times , I will still win convincingly.”
