Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin

SANDAKAN: Kinabatangan MP Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin said yesterday that according to sources and predictions more Umno MPs were expected to quit the party.

The Sabah Umno Liaison Committee deputy chairman said to Bernama that more MPs from the party, including in Sabah, were expected to resign.

He said he could not reveal any name for fear of possible defamation.

Datuk Seri Mustapa Mohamed, the MP for Jeli in Kelantan, and Datuk Seri Anifah Aman, the MP for Kimanis in Sabah, announced their resignations from the party on Tuesday and yesterday, respectively.

Asked whether former Sabah chief minister Tan Sri Musa Aman would emulate his brother Anifah’s move and also quit Umno, Bung Moktar declined to comment.

As for himself, he said, he would remain in the party because he was convinced that Umno would rise again. – Bernama
