Kedah Umno rebels played out by Najib, claims Mahfuz



Kedah Umno leaders who rebelled against Menteri Besar Mukhriz Mahathir were played out by Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak, claims Pokok Sena MP Mahfuz Omar.
Mahfuz said this in reference to the press conference on Wednesday led by Kedah Umno deputy chief Ahmad Bashah Md Hanipah which denounced Mukhriz's leadership and called for his replacement.
However claims by some leaders including Kedah Umno Wanita chief Maznah Hamid that they were duped into attending the press conference has caused red faces.
"The Kedah Umno leadership should prioritise the country and rakyat which is facing hardship due to Najib's failure in managing the country.
"They have to realise that they were fooled by Najib when they initiated a coup attempt that sullied the celebrations of the Kedah Sultan's 88th birthday," said Mahfuz in a statement today.
The PAS lawmaker noted that the Kedah Umno rebels will be meeting Najib (photo) later today and urged them to instead express loss of confidence in Najib.
"Ousting Mukhriz will not resolve the the country's problems and the rakyat's crisis of confidence in Najib amid issues such as 1MDB, GST, TPPA, the ringgit's decline, rising cost of living, corruption and others," he said.
The Wednesday's press conference is seen as paving the way for Najib to strike back at former premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad, who is Mukhriz's father.
Mahathir has been a key figure in calling for Najib's removal as prime minister after alleging various wrongdoings.
However, Mukhriz's supporters quickly mobilised thousands of protesters onto the streets in support of the Kedah menteri besar.
Mahathir, who was prime minister for 22 years, is a Kedahan and enjoys strong support in his home state. -Mkini
