National Publicity Secretary of Nigeria’s major opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Olisa Metuh in this interview with Temidayo Akinsuyi, of Daily Independent accuses Lai Mohammed of suffering from a narcissist syndrome.
The National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Alh. Lai Mohammed last week issued a statement asking you to mind your utterances and avoid the usage of trench languages when making public statements. What is your take on this?
****Whatever Lai Mohammed says doesn’t bother me. When Lai Mohammed says ‘good morning’, you have to look at your watch to confirm the actual time of the day. I think Lai Mohammed must have been referring to all the lies he is used to dishing out. He is a veteran of hate politics*****. You will recall that when he said he will educate me on how to be a virile opposition and that he will offer me a crash course on opposition politics. We rejected it by saying that we can’t take a crash course from someone who is used to lying, who is used to instigating crisis, accusing and insulting leaders. So, he has nothing to teach us except noisemaking and lies. That is not how we are playing our opposition in PDP. If you look at what we have done in the last three months as opposition party, we have always centred our views on issues, our criticisms are constructive and issue-based. But Lai Mohammed at all times, want to be the centre of attraction but we in PDP are not bothered about him. We are more concerned about the programmes of his party and the ruling government. He is not important. He is completely inconsequential in the scheme of things in this country. He should stop dramatizing himself as a factor. He is not a factor to be reckoned with. The APC did not win the presidential election because of him or because of the propaganda he dished out. He is confused and we feel sorry for him. He is suffering from narcissist syndrome.
