A brand new N12.6m Chevy Corvette with the message “Wedding Gift from Senator David Mark to Tuface & Annie” was one of the gifts presented at the couple’s wedding (2face/Annie) in Dubai on Saturday.
The BIG gift has since generated lots of controversy on the internet like…
‘David Mark Rejected A Bill For Unemployed Graduates to be paid N20,000, yet he squandered money by giving a car for 2face as wedding gift‘, @HadiMusawa wrote.
But other reports suggest that it might not have been a gift from David Mark after all, even though 2Face is from Benue State, the same state as Senate President David Mark who is the Senator for the Benue South constituency.
Well, to further fuel the controversy, David Mark is denying that he presented the car.
According to CKN Nigeria, Special Adviser – Media & Publicity to the President of the Senate David Mark, Kola Ologbondiyan allegedly claims the gift is not from Senator Mark.
Senator Mark did not visit Dubai for Tuface wedding rather he attended the 128th Inter parliamentary Union (IPU) conference currently holding in Quito, Ecuador. He was also not represented at Mr. Idibia’s wedding. It is also instructive to state that the President of the Senate, Senator Mark, did not make a car donation of any kind to Tuface before departing Nigeria for Ecuador neither did he purchase nor send any car to Dubai as a wedding gift for the musician or his wife. Who made the donation on behalf of the President of the Senate?
It is therefore a puerile lie for anybody to state that Senator Mark bought a Ferrari car worth N47m for Tuface. The allegation is wicked, ridiculous and irresponsible.
What should we believe, the photos or the politician’s PR?
