With BN backing nullified, Perikatan does not have enough support: Pakatan sec-gen

[superadmin]

KUALA LUMPUR – Pakatan Harapan (PH) has rubbished Perikatan Nasional (PN) secretary-general Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin’s claims that his coalition had support from more than 112 elected parliamentarians to form the government.

PH secretary-general Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said this was because Barisan Nasional chairman Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi had nullified purported declarations or negotiations involving Umno MPs and PN.

Saifuddin said therefore Hamzah’s claims were invalid and cannot be used as evidence of support for any prime ministerial candidate.

He added that Zahid’s assertions meant that PN could lose several seats it claims to hold.
