FMT:
Isham sacked?
However, it is unclear if the former Umno information chief was removed as a Supreme Council member or booted from the party.
Isham Jalil was elected as an Umno Supreme Council member during the party’s elections in March.
KUALA LUMPUR: Has Isham Jalil been sacked?
According to an Umno Supreme Council member, who spoke on condition of anonymity, its former information chief has been given the boot for openly criticising the party.
“He called for the president (Ahmad Zahid Hamidi) to step down, labelled Umno a DAP lackey, did not toe the party line and did not turn up for meetings,” the source said.
However, FMT is unable to verify if Isham was removed from the Supreme Council or sacked from the party.
Another Supreme Council member said that Isham had been removed from the council.
Isham was elected as an Umno Supreme Council member during the party’s elections in March.
While he was previously a strong supporter of Zahid, he has since been critical of the latter and the party’s cooperation with DAP, following the outcome of the six state elections in August.
He had even challenged Zahid to sack him in September over his criticism of Umno’s relationship with DAP and Pakatan Harapan.
