Repent, Zahid tells Sanusi for allegedly insulting Selangor sultan

 

Deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi told Kedah menteri besar Sanusi Nor (right) that not everything needs to be turned into campaign material.

PUTRAJAYA: Deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has advised Kedah menteri besar Sanusi Nor to “repent” for allegedly insulting the sultan of Selangor in a ceramah recently.

Zahid was referring to a speech Sanusi made, where the PAS man touched on Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah’s royal assent for the appointment of Amirudin Shari as menteri besar in 2018.

“Politics is not a joke… I hope he will repent because not everything needs to be turned into campaign material, as it can be detrimental to himself.

“There’s no need for me to respond (to his speech). He doesn’t know how to differentiate between fact and fiction,” the BN chairman told reporters at an event here.

Selangor PKR Youth is expected to lodge a police report against Sanusi sometime today over his alleged remark.
