THE photo going viral in the social media was a meeting among president of all parties to nominate Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad lead a Unity Government without DAP.

That was the initial agreement. However, the support was later withdrawn.

The presidents in attendance brought with them the Statutory Declaration (SD) and NOT court documents as claimed by some people.

I took liberty in taking the mandate given by UMNO leaders and members, no other than that.

Only those gullible by the news will believe in such slanderous writing. Was it proper for such a meeting to discuss personal agenda when the main issue was a government change?

We just fasted a month only to see such slanders dominating us again.

Dato’ Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi
UMNO President
