Narayanganj City Corporation Mayor Dr Selina Hayat Ivy called Shamim Osman the greatest liar of all time.
“Shamim Osman is the biggest liar ever and he said he [Shamim] considers people to be dogs and he has no ability to do anything for the people,” said Ivy.
She made the remarks yesterday while addressing the city corporation’s budget announcement programme.
On Sunday, at a party programme in the district, the lawmaker from Narayanganj 4 alleged that the Narayanganj gas crisis has remained unresolved due to the non-cooperation of Mayor Ivy. She basically made her comments in response to that accusal.
Ivy also stated: “If he [Shamim] was a good man, he would never have said such big lies in public. Killings, extortion, tender manipulation, controlling the garments and telling lies are his only ‘abilities.’”
The mayor continued that whenever Titas Gas Company sought approval to cut roads to set up gas pipelines, the city corporation gave them permission without any delay and later the Petrobangla chairman inaugurated the task.
During the budget session programme, Shamim’s elder brother Selim Osman, also a recently elected MP from Narayanganj 5, was present and before leaving he said: “Most of the areas of the city corporation belong to my constituency and I want to work with the corporation for the sake of the residents.”
