PETALING JAYA: DAP veteran Lim Kit Siang's (pic) offer to retire is merely a diversion from his "undemocratic power grab", says Datuk Seri Tengku Sariffuddin Tengku Ahmad.

"Every time Kit Siang fails to get his way as a leader, he tries to win sympathy by announcing he is prepared to sacrifice himself and retire in order to save DAP," said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak's press secretary, who likened the act to touring operas that go from town to town, repeating the same drama.
