MELAKA: The decision of Ketereh Umno Youth chief Afiq Amani Annuar to quit the party yesterday will not dampen the spirit of other members to remain loyal to the party, says Dr Muhamad Akmal Saleh (pic).
The Umno Youth chief said in a statement on Saturday (Aug 5), that the wing would remain steadfast and continue to shoulder the responsibilities to strengthen the party.
“Leaders come and go. We will continue our fight for the party’s struggles.
“I would like to remind and advise Umno Youth friends that our struggle is not based on individuals or any political figure, but the struggle of Youth within UMNO is to continue its function and role in recruiting young members, as well as its struggles for religion, race and the country,” he said.
The media reported on Friday (Aug 4) that in addition to Afiq Amani, also announcing his departure from the party was Ketereh Umno’s Ahmad Syauqi Mazlan.
Dr Muhamad Akmal said that following the development, the Ketereh Umno Youth chief’s post would be assumed by the division Youth deputy chief, Azhan Ishak. – Bernama
