Quader himself is a ridiculous character : Rizvi

Awami League general secretary Obaidul Quader has made himself a “ridiculous character” to people by making ‘imaginary’ comments about his political opponents said BNP senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi on Monday.

“We’ve recently noticed that some leaders and ministers of Awami League, especially its general secretary Obaidul Quader, have taken fictitious statements against BNP at daily press briefings as their only political programme,” he said.

Speaking at a press conference at the party’s Nayapaltan central office, Rizvi said, “Obaidul Quader has turned himself into a ridiculous character to people by daily spreading lies against BNP without any reason.”

He said the ruling party leaders have no choice but to make childish statements against the BNP since they still cannot understand that they have become enemies of mass people.

Referring to a recent remark by Obaidul Quader’s younger brother and Noakhali’s Companygonj Municipality mayor Abdul Quader Mirza that Awami League’s MP’s will not get the escape route, let alone getting elected, in a fair election, Rizvi said this comment depicted present Bangladesh’s a realistic picture.

“We do hope Obaidul Quader will realise the importance of his younger brother’s statement instead of finding any involvement of BNP with Abdul Quader Mirza.” he said.

Rizvi said Mirza’s remark has clearly proved that the Awami government has been cheating the country’s people in the name of elections for long 12 years by putting the Election Commission in its lap
