‘I’m not fighting for deputy presidency’
By Stephanie Sta Maria, Free Malaysia Today
KUALA LUMPUR: PKR supreme council member Zaid Ibrahim has refuted reports of him eyeing the deputy presidency position in the party, saying that it is completely untrue.
Reiterating his stand, Zaid said his sole political mission is to help strengthen Pakatan Rakyat by shaping and communicating its policies in a way that will garner more support among the people.
“I have no interest in PKR’s internal affairs and who is holding what post,” he wrote in his latest blog posting.
“But I think everyone should be concerned if there is any turbulence within PKR that becomes a threat to Pakatan,” he added.
According to an earlier report on another news portal, a party insider claimed that Zaid was tipped to run against the PKR vice-president Azmin Ali for the role of deputy presidency in the December party polls.
