The Express newspaper on Sunday quoted a political source as saying that Patrick Manning's apology fior his shortcomings as Prime Minister was a little too late.
Manning made the apology on Friday.
The paper quoted an unnamed source from Manning's own party, the People's National Movement (PNM).

The paper quoted an unnamed source from Manning's own party, the People's National Movement (PNM).
"Besides the fact that (the apology) came late, he never says what he is sorry for. He should have been specific. The public has no clue exactly what he is apologising for. It just seemed like the MP for San Fernando East was aiming to get back in the spotlight," the paper quoted the source as saying.
"I have a feeling that he still thinks he can come back into the leadership of national politics; back in spotlight."
On Friday, Manning publicly acknowledged his administration may have "disenfranchised" certain sections of the national population by its policies.
"The people of Trinidad and Tobago may very well have thought that in me they would have found perfection. If that were the case, I could have said from quite early on you had the wrong man," Manning said, adding, "I am not perfect."
