“The performance of journalists in this year’s was abysmal just like the previous ones”.
“If that continues then it should be scrapped, it is not the forum to sing praises or ask unnecessary questions.”
If journalists won’t seize the opportunity to ask thought-provoking questions, then the president should go to the market, ask traders of their needs and they will be able to tell the president exactly what they want,” he said.
The professor also said the few related questions asked were not followed up. According to him, unsatisfactory responses to question require” follow up”.
