KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 1 — Umno president and Barisan Nasional (BN) chairman Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi today denied that candidates for the BN coalition in the upcoming 15th general election (GE15) had to sign letters to support him to be the prime minister.

When asked about a report by news portal The Vibes that BN election candidates were required to sign such documents to back him as prime minister, Zahid answered briefly when met at the court complex here for his trial: “Itu tipu (It’s a lie).”


With just three days to go before Nomination Day this Saturday, there has been much speculation over who have been included and left out of BN’s line-up of candidates.
