Bersatu Youth chief congratulates Najib's 'wedding', gets pounded online


Bersatu Youth chief Wan Ahmad Fayhsal Wan Ahmad Kamal today “congratulated” Najib Abdul Razak’s “wedding”.

Wan Fayhsal did so in a comment to Najib's Facebook post on a visit by Singaporean foreign minister Vivian Balakrishnan.

“Selamat pengantin baru Dato Seri!” wrote Wan Fayhsal.

At the time of writing, Wan Fayhsal’s post had received 383 reactions and 197 replies.


Wan Fayhsal's comment came amidst the widespread circulation of a photograph depicting Najib posing with a woman, arms linked, at a party with others.

This has led to widespread speculation online that Najib has a new family.

Wan Fayhsal’s comment received mostly brickbats from other netizens, with many reminding him of his previous faux pas such as offering “support letters” as part of his campaign to be elected the Bersatu Youth chief and suggesting that the government “print money” to solve economic woes.

Najib married Tengku Puteri Zainah Tengku Eskandar in 1976. At the time Najib was 23 years old.

Together, they had three children - Mohd Nizar, Mohd Nazifuddin and Puteri Norlisa.

Najib divorced Zainah in 1987 and married Rosmah Mansor. Together, they had two children - Mohd Norashman and Nooryana Najwa.
