The Barisan Nasional supreme council tonight unanimously agreed to appoint Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir as BN secretary-general.
Zahid, who is also Umno president, said the meeting also unanimously agreed to appoint Perlis Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Azlan Man as the state’s BN coordinating committee chairman.
He added that the supreme council also decided to strengthen the party’s machinery in several states to help vaccination registration efforts, especially among the elderly, persons with disabilities and residents in rural areas.
Ahmad Zahid said that at the meeting, the annual report and financial report dated Dec 31, 2020, were tabled.
Meanwhile, Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan who was appointed BN secretary-general on Jan 5, tweeted that he had withdrawn from the post in February and that it was approved by Zahid.
“The positions of UMNO secretary-general and Muafakat Nasional (MN) joint secretary-general (which he currently occupies) are more than enough responsibilities,” he said. – BERNAMA
