Lai Mohammed will be a Minister without portfolio – PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has come hard on the National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, Lai Mohammed, for claiming that the opposition party will likely go down if it does not urgently rebrand itself.

In a statement issued by its spokesman, Olisa Metuh, on Saturday, the PDP described Mohammed, who is a Minister-designate, as “a quarrelsome and misguided individual” who will end up as a minister without portfolio in President Muhammadu Buhari’s government.

While alleging that the APC spokesman is “completely unfit” to hold a responsible national office in a democratic government, the party wrote that his cantankerous nature, resort to personal attacks and uncouth description of a rival political party while responding to critical issues were indicative of his background, pedigree, upbringing and emptiness as a low life.
PDP went on to admonish Mohammed to “shed his offensive narcissist tendencies even in his desperation not to end up being a minister without a portfolio.”

It reminded him that ,“having been a beneficiary of the benevolence and forgiving spirit of the Senate President, one would expect him now to be mature, decent, civil and more organised in his responses to public comments.”

Just yesterday, Mohammed had reacted to PDP national leadership’s recent communique on the recent political happenings in the nation by saying it is a rehash of the party’s “infantile whining”, which will not save it from going down unless it rebrands most urgently.

He further stated that “It is time for the PDP to take a long, hard look at itself in the mirror and change everything that is ugly about the party, instead of wasting its energy and time on irrelevancies.”
