PETALING JAYA: Umno President Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi says he will soon explain the party’s actions in sacking and suspending some of its leaders on Friday.
Zahid said he will provide the explanation in a ceremony later.
“Wait, I will explain. I will do it in a ceremony later,” Berita Harian quoted him as saying on the sidelines of an event at Dataran Merdeka Saturday.
However, he did not give any details on when exactly he plans to do it.
Former Umno Youth Chief Khairy Jamaluddin and former Selangor Umno Chief Noh Omar were sacked Friday night for breaching party discipline during the 15th general election.
The party also suspended its former vice-president and Sembrong MP Hishammuddin Hussein, former information chief Shahril Hamdan, Tebrau Umno division leader Maulizan Bujang and former Jempol MP Salim Sharif for six years.
Five Umno members from Pasir Gudang, nine from Putrajaya, two from Tanjong Karang and 26 from Pahang were also sacked.
