Toppling Najib not one of my mistakes - Dr M



SEMENYIH POLLS
 | Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad said that he does not consider toppling his predecessor Najib Abdul Razak a mistake.

"I may be wrong sometimes, but I wasn't wrong when I toppled Najib," Mahathir said at a ceramah in Semenyih tonight.
The Bersatu chairperson had in the past said that backing Najib to become prime minister was an error in judgement.
Speaking to voters in Semenyih tonight, the prime minister also took another swipe at Najib and the supporters that call the latter 'bossku' (my boss).
He said the word "boss" is the term that was used by African slaves to refer to their Western masters.
"So when we call him 'bossku', it means you are a slave to the boss.
"We have already achieved Merdeka (independence), but you still want to be slaves?" Mahathir said to cheers from the 3,000 strong audience.
He then ridiculed Najib's "malu apa boss ku" (My boss has nothing to be ashamed of) slogan.

"Bossku is no ordinary boss. He is a thief. This is bossku, and he is very proud of it, beating his chest without shame.
"When we look at him, he is not ashamed at all. When we steal, we do it stealthily. But he is enjoying it, smiling being called bossku," he said.
Najib is currently awaiting trial on charges of money-laundering, criminal breach of trust and corruption in relation to the 1MDB scandal.  - Mkini
