YOURSAY | ‘Take heed, Najib, your delusional disorder worsens as the day progresses.’

Najib: I am afraid of no one but Allah

Odin Tajué: PM Najib Abdul Razak, this is nothing more than a rehash of your huffing and puffing about being a brave, resolute captain of a Bugis ‘pirate skiff’. Which was your voicing out of your obsessive craving to be what you have not been and would never be.

There is absolutely no bravery in you. No, not even a gossamer-thin shred of it. You are yellower than the skin of a ripe banana as you have clearly illustrated on many occasions.

Any bravery you have is due to the fact that you have the police, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), the Attorney-General’s Chambers and the central bank serving as both moat and castle beyond, and within which respectively you are hiding.

That is false bravery. In effect, then, you are once again strutting false bravado.

You are also a silvery-tongued snake oil salesman. Working for the people you have never done. When the inspector-general of police’s (IGP’s) brother and his gang of bigoted yobs demanded that the cross affixed to the outside wall of the church be taken down, you said and did nothing.

When Mohd Ali Baharom aka Ali Tinju and Jamal ‘Ikan Bakar’ Yunos made incendiary statements calculated to provoke the non-Malays, particularly the Chinese, you were quieter than the timidest of mice.

There have been other, similar instances when you slinked away to the dirty, dank, dark recesses of the filthiest sewer where you belong, instead of doing what you should have.

Habitual thieves are the greatest of liars. The yellowest of cowards are the greatest of bullies.

Vijay47: Take heed, Najib, your delusional disorder worsens as the day progresses.

Your disconnect with reality is more evident with you now embarking on this new road where political power, religious fervour and fearlessness seem to merge in some futile effort to impress the disdainful crowd.

If you view yourself as a latter-day Islamic version of Joan of Arc, you are sadly wrong, you do not hold a candle to her.

First, you claim to strive for the nation and faith. Really? In one, your abysmal failure is visible each day and in the other you are hardly an icon of piety. Riches and trysts by the sea do not make one a saint.

Then you aver that you fear only God, again a hint of closeness and subservience to divinity you so badly lack. Thieves and rogues may follow you for the moment, the lure of money is so tempting.

You say you fight for the people - your wife, daughter, and stepson do not count as "the people". Take care Najib, the Bugis will disown you since a brave pirate you are not.

Love God n Do Gd: We don't think you love God. If you do, you would be a good PM and a model of a good citizen to the country.

But you are a bad leader, allegedly stealing the country's money, there is no transparency nor accountability, you tell lies after lies and you have no respect to all who confronted you on your evil ways.

You have brought shame to your country, race and religion. Where is your love for God?

Anonymous 2336891439170985: Of course, he is afraid of no one, no matter how bad his behaviour and actions are.

The top judge, the top prosecutor, the top police and the top of what have you are all handpicked by him.

Remember what he said in Sarawak about 'lu tolong gua and gua tolong lu' syndrome?

Anonymous_1421806811: Yes, Najib. You are a very scared person indeed; if not you would have proven yourself innocent of all lies and stand brave and tall.

Your actions over the past one year showed you are desperately hiding from the truth; surrounded yourself with yes-men and lied on every single occasion. You are definitely afraid.

Victor Johan: Our beloved PM, did you inform the rural folk that in the 10th general election in 1999, you won with a majority of only 241 votes, allegedly with the help of 'postal votes'?

Please also inform them that soon after that election, you had brought more votes through more Felda schemes and a large army base into your constituency.

Sherlock: This man forgets that he is paid monthly salary and allowances working as PM for Malaysia, not just being a MP for Pekan.

He can use money to buy all the votes he need for the 40,000 in Pekan, but that does not mean Malaysia wants him.

Boonpou: Najib's speeches have been so predictable, even rhetorical and empty. They are either contradictory or embarrassing, even when written by expensive American-based ghost writers. What unity is he talking about?

Even within Umno or parties like MCA, MIC, and Gerakan, the "unity" factor has to be bought with a lot of money, and that he took the rakyat's money through GST (goods and services tax), higher toll taxes and so on, not forgetting 1MDB.

I am no fan of Dr Mahathir Mohamad, but what Najib has been allegedly plundering far surpassed Mahathir and all the other PM predecessors combined by a large margin.

Anonymous 1890491455255851: The PM should be afraid of himself or what he has become.

If he claims to be a proponent of change, with the desire to put in place new methods, why has he been using the same old methods, such as the flagrant abuse of laws, the suppression of a free media, the control over what are supposed to be independent institutions such as the justice and legal offices and continuing the culture of corruption?

Pahatian: He has used race to consolidate his power, but it seems to be fading fast. Now he is invoking the name of Allah to exonerate all his wrongdoings and incompetency.

A good leader would not need to tell the people what good and how hard he has worked for the people or the country. It is all left for the people to see and feel that he has really done good for the country and not otherwise.

Lim Chong Leong: Afraid of no one? Is that why he did not turn up to face the 92-year-old man at the ‘Nothing2Hide’ forum?
