Redzuan's 'announcement' fizzles, says quit claim played up by certain quarters

 

MALACCA POLLS | Bersatu supreme council member Mohd Redzuan Md Yusof claimed today that rumours surrounding his plans to quit the party had been hyped up by certain quarters.

Redzuan previously lamented that Bersatu has changed and hinted at a major announcement to be made sometime this month.

However, the Alor Gajah MP at a press conference today only denied rumours that he would be leaving the party.

"I would like to deny what the people are saying - I am not with the party or I have plans to quit. All of that is not true.

"It (the rumours) has been hyped by certain parties," said the former minister in the prime minister's department under Muhyiddin Yassin's administration.

"I would like to categorically state that I remain with the Bersatu leadership," he said.

Given his status as Bersatu's sole MP in Malacca, Redzuan said his explanation, made on day two of campaigning for the state elections, was timely after there were claims that he has not been a part of Perikatan Nasional's election machinery.

"We (in Alor Gajah) will oversee the Malacca state seats throughout this election," he told reporters at the Alor Gajah Parliament operation room.
