KUALA LUMPUR – PAS Youth has accused Umno president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi of going overboard in attacking its party leader Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang, as ties between the two Muafakat Nasional (MN) parties continue to disintegrate.
Its chief Ahmad Fadhli Shaari said PAS had been patient over the past year, despite a series of statements slamming the Islamist party, but described Zahid’s latest remark as going overboard.
This concerns the Umno president’s statement yesterday suggesting Hadi should change his profession from a politician to a zoologist after the latter labelled Umno as a “lame duck”.
Fadlhi noted that this is not the first time Zahid had criticised PAS, pointing to a social media post the latter had made in December.
“You wrote that a religious person should follow authentic scriptures and not manipulate religious laws based on political whims and fancies, to achieve political goals.
“We know who that post was targeted at, but we did not respond because we know many in Umno still love our ummah unity,” he said in his Facebook post today.
