Prime Minister Kamla Persad-Bissessar said she would have booed Public Utilities Minister Barry Padarath for his “terrible” attempt at singing had she attended the Hyatt Lime fete in Port of Spain on Wednesday.
A video that went viral later that night showed Padarath addressing the crowd from the stage and praising Minister of Works and Infrastructure Jearlean John.
He also attempted to sing the chorus of Machel Montano’s hit song, “Give Them Performance”.
