PETALING JAYA: Backing opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim to be prime minister in 2020 was the right thing to do then, says former Umno Supreme Council member Nazri Aziz.

Defending MPs from Umno who had signed declarations of support for Anwar, Nazri said he had signed out of “love” for Umno, to protect the party from being dissolved.

Nazri said he agreed with the move to support Anwar. “I was worried that if we didn’t back Anwar, the party would be dissolved,” he told FMT.
