Opposition Leader Kamla Persad-Bissessar has called the announcement of Stuart Young to replace Dr Keith Rowley as Prime Minister as undemocratic.
The revelation regarding Young was made by Dr Rowley earlier today following a PNM Parliamentary caucus in Tobago.
However, a short while when she arrived at a UNC cottage meeting at the party's headquarters, she weighed in on the development.
"Today we have replaced a lazy, greedy, selfish old man, with a lazy, greedy, selfish young man," she said.
Persad-Bissessar said the PNM was taking the path of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in the recently held United States election, " by undemocratically anointing Stuart Young as his successor to be Prime Minister and like Joe Biden and Kamala Harris they will be defeated in the general election."
