David Alechenu Bonaventure Mark GCON ((listenⓘ); born 8 April 1948)[1][2] is a retired Nigerian Army brigadier general and politician.

He was Commandant of Static Communications in 1974, then later held a political post as Chairman Abandoned Properties Implementation Committee in the Eastern region in 1976.

As Minister of Communications, Mark was sometimes known for his blunt talk; during a two-day walking tour of facilities in Akure in 1989, some union workers complained that some of its members had not been promoted since 1978.

[14] David Mark noted that the polls pointed to his decisive victory and called for his opponents to work together to improve Nigeria.

"[17] Mark called Nigeria's National Football Federation the "centre of corruption in the country," suggesting that they may need to temporarily disband to allow for reconstruction.
