Sabah Umno threatens to close its doors to any talks with PPBM in the state if Abd Latiff Ahmad does not apologise. FMTNews GhazalieAnsing
Sabah Umno communications director Ghazalie Ansing and Rural and Regional Development Minister Abd Latiff Ahmad.
Communications director Ghazalie Ansing said Sabah Umno did not accept Latiff’s claim that his remarks had been misinterpreted. “This is even though the Sabah PPBM chief previously said they were looking to negotiate with parties aligned with Perikatan Nasional.”“People in Sabah don’t call it jumping, they call it migrating. From Berjaya to PBS, PBS to Umno,” said Latiff, who crossed over from Umno to PPBM in 2019.
His remarks sparked criticism from Umno leaders who called for his resignation as minister. However, he said earlier today that any decision on the matter would be made by the prime minister.However, Ghazalie said Latiff’s remarks had been spoken, not written and open to misinterpretation.
