KOTA KINABALU: Sabah Umno Youth has come to the defence of Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi who was accused of lobbying for government positions directly with Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin.

Zahid is said to have recommended Sabah Umno chief Bung Mokhtar Radin to be appointed chairman of the Sabah Federal Development Agency; newly-installed Kimanis MP Mohd Alamin as a federal deputy minister; and Umno supreme council member Yakubah Khan as chairman of Labuan port. “The recommendation letter is the right channel for doing so. It is up to the prime minister to consider such recommendations without force and pressure,” he said.

Aziz said Zahid should be praised for not asking for a position for himself but instead making recommendations for others.
