SHAFIE TELLS NAJIB: We are 'longtime friends' but Umno comes first

 SHAFIE TELLS NAJIB: We are 'longtime friends' but Umno comes first
SEMPORNA - Personal friendships must take a backseat to public interest and party loyalties, Umno vice-president Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal told Sabah division delegates here today as the country’s biggest political group flounders amid a leadership schism.
Shafie said he was “longtime friends” with party president and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak but continued to defend his vocal criticism of the latter’s 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) project as part of his duty as an elected representative.
“I wanted to gain the people’s confidence by being able to answer their questions. I have never shied away from speaking my mind.
“You can tell the PM this: we are longtime friends. But loyalty to the party is not based on my friendship with Najib,” the Semporna MP said in his speech at the Umno divisional meeting here that was also graced by Umno deputy president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.
