Is Hishammuddin joining the race for Umno’s presidency? - superadmin - 01-02-2023 KUALA LUMPUR – Speculations on Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein purportedly challenging Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi for the Umno presidency have intensified, with a former party Supreme Council member claiming to have internal knowledge of the matter. Datuk Seri Lokman Noor Adam said he has been informed by reliable sources that this was confirmed by Tenggara Umno division chief Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba, a known ally to Hishammuddin. Hishammuddin was one of several Umno MPs who objected to the party’s decision to establish a cooperation with Pakatan Harapan to form the unity government after the general election. The former Umno vice-president has since fallen out of favour among the party’s top leaders, with observers speculating that he might now vie for the number one post. - More - |
