00:00UMNO will not allow Pujuang President Mukriz Mahadir to rejoin the party.
00:06Two UMNO leaders said this after Mukriz claimed he would not return due to the party's efforts
00:11to free former Prime Minister Najib Razak.
00:14UMNO Supreme Council member Puad Zakashi dismissed Mukriz's claim, stating that the latter is
00:19embarrassed because his party, Pujuang, is nearly extinct and even his father, Mahadir
00:24Mohamed, has left it.
00:26Puad also said Mukriz's return would damage UMNO's image, especially in Kedah.
00:30Puad, who is also the Ringgit Assemblyman, jokingly suggested that the former Kedah
00:35Muntri Basar could stay relevant by replacing his father as an advisor to the four states
00:39governed by Perikatan Nasional.
00:41Meanwhile, UMNO Supreme Council member Razlan Rafieez said that UMNO did not need individuals
00:47who only cared about their personal interests.
00:50Mukriz was dismissed from UMNO in 2016 after the Supreme Council decided that he breached
00:54party discipline by sharing the stage with opposition leaders and repeatedly criticizing
00:58UMNO.
