Bakar Bata assemblyman Datuk Seri Ahmad Bashah Md Hanipah is the new Kedah menteri besar, Bernama reports in a news flash shortly after Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir announced his resignation today.
The appointment ends more than two weeks of the state's leadership crisis following a revolt against Mukhriz.
Bashah, the Kedah Umno liaison deputy chairman, led the charge to remove Mukhriz on January 20.
He had accused Mukhriz of failed to unite the party leadership and machinery, and lacking strategy for Kedah Umno to face the 14th general election.
