UMNO challenging Mahia on numbers - allegations that PM had claimed support of 2230





Umno: Muhyiddin no longer commands majority, here's proof

Umno today showcased 11 MPs who do not support Perikatan Nasional and Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin.

The gathering was broadcast live over the internet following a decision made by the Umno supreme council today, reaffirming that the party will not back Muhyiddin.

The list of MPs who attended the session are as follows:

Najib Abdul Razak (Pekan)
Azalina Othman Said (Pengerang)
Mohd Nizar Zakaria (Parit)
Azeez Abdul Rahim (Baling)
Noh Omar (Tanjung Karang)
Ahmad Zahid Hamidi (Bagan Datuk)
Ahmad Nazlan Idris (Jerantut)
Ahmad Jazlan Yaakub (Machang)
Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah (Gua Musang)
Ramli Mohd Nor (Cameron Highlands)
Ahmad Maslan (Pontian)

Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said the 11 had stated their withdrawal of support for Muhyiddin in writing and the process of gathering more was ongoing.

"These letters have been sent to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong. For proof, with me are (some of the) MPs who signed the letters.

"There are a few more who could not be with us today, especially those in Sabah," he said.

Zahid alluded that he had already sought an audience from the Agong and the additional letters will be furnished then.

At the time of writing, it is impossible to determine the exact number of MPs who still back Muhyiddin.
