KUALA LUMPUR – Pakatan Harapan (PH) lawmakers were branded cowards by an impassioned Datuk Seri Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim (Baling-BN) for not voicing out against Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad (Langkawi-Pejuang) for allowing the collapse of the then PH-led government.
Debating on the anti-party hopping bill today, the Umno lawmaker also pinned the blame solely on the former prime minister over what transpired during the political crisis in 2020 that saw Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin (Pagoh-Bersatu) coming into power.
In a fiery speech, Azeez added how Dr Mahathir had chosen to relinquish his prime minister post without first engaging with his cabinet – after supposedly losing majority support – which eventually led to massive defections among those from PH.
