The All Progressives Congress (APC) has said Babachir Lawal, a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), is "a burden unto himself". According to the ruling party, Lawal, 69, needs counselling.
The APC’s criticism of Lawal was contained in a statement sent to Legit.ng on Tuesday night, October 17.
The release was signed by Felix Morka, the national publicity secretary of the party.
The APC’s statement partly reads: “Clearly, the defeat of his principal, Peter Obi, at the poll has done incalculable damage to Mr. Lawal’s psyche and his capacity for rational thought as evident in his analysis based entirely on the figment of his warped imagination rather than on hard facts and figures.
“Babachir Lawal ought to have known that running a jaundiced commentary on a matter before the Supreme Court is the height of irresponsibility. But he is still nursing bitterness and vindictiveness over his failed dream of running on a joint ticket with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”
