Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has co-opted five allies into the party's supreme council in his first major move after returning from garden leave.
The five are Batu Pahat Umno chief Mohd Puad Zarkashi, Hulu Langat Umno chief Johan Abd Aziz, Bagan Umno chief Shaik Hussein Mydin, Sepanggar Umno chief Yaakub Khan and Seputeh Umno vice-chief Mohd Razlan Muhammad Rafii.
Apart from Shaik Hussein, the other four are believed to also be strong supporters of former Umno president Najib Abdul Razak.
It is believed that the fresh appointments were made to replace three of Zahid's previous supreme council appointees - Hajiji Nor, Azizah Mohd Dun and Anifah Aman.
The trio had left Umno in December.
