“The problem in Selangor is not our problem. The problem was started by our friend and we are forced to help resolve it,” said Hadi during a question-and-answer session on September 4 in Rusila, Terengganu.
The video interview has been uploaded on YouTube and was aired on Umno-controlled television station TV3 last night on its prime-time news programme, Buletin Utama.
Hadi and a faction of PAS conservatives have been criticised by its allies in Pakatan Rakyat for its behaviour throughout the crisis.
Hadi has backed Khalid, a former corporate captain, since his sacking from PKR and even when both PKR and DAP agreed to his removal as MB.
PAS’s central committee, on which Hadi also sits, eventually decided to nominate PKR president Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail and her deputy, Azmin Ali, as candidates for the menteri besar post.
But it emerged by the end of the week that Hadi had nominated three other Selangor PR leaders, other than Dr Wan Azizah, as the new MB.
His nominations were reportedly sent to the palace directly from the PAS, by-passing the central committee.
Hadi’s latest move contradicts DAP and PKR’s stand to nominate only Dr Wan Azizah.
MORE TO COME.
