Does PPBM practice what it preaches?

Raja Sara Petra

PPBM Deputy President Mukhriz Mahathir said action will be taken against its Youth exco member, Muhammad Hafiz Azhar, for raising sensitive issues regarding the party leaders and for not protecting the party.

Basically Muhammad Hafiz had asked Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad to explain how his sons became unusually rich and to clarify Muhyiddin Yassin’s alleged scandal with a married woman. Muhammad Hafiz also said the members are losing confidence with the party leaders because of their lack of integrity and abuse of power. (READ NEWS ITEM BELOW).

Because of this breach of so-called party ‘rules’ action will be taken against Muhammad Hafiz. When Mukhriz, Muhyiddin and a few other leaders did the same to Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak they said it is their right to attack Najib and that it was unjust to take action against critics of the Prime Minister. Why then does PPBM not practice what it preaches?

Instead of taking action against Muhammad Hafiz they should answer his questions. After all these are valid questions. How did Mahathir’s children become billionaires and what is the story behind Muhyiddin’s alleged scandal with Nika Gee? If they refuse to answer these questions what right do they have to demand that Najib answer their questions?

Exco Armada tuntut penjelasan

(Utusan Malaysia) – Angkatan Bersatu Anak Muda (Armada) Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (PPBM) semakin hilang kepercayaan terhadap pucuk pimpinan parti itu yang dilihat tidak berintegriti dan menyalahgunakan kuasa.

Exco Armada PPBM, Muhammad Hafiz Azhar berkata, pelbagai soalan diajukan oleh ahli peringkat akar umbi mengenai kekayaan luar biasa anak-anak Pengerusi PPBM, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad dan juga skandal Nika Ghee dengan Presiden PPBM, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

“Bagaimana pun semua soalan itu akan dielak daripada dijawab oleh mereka yang berkenaan ketika mesyuarat bersama dan saya sendiri menghantar pesanan ringkas kepada Ketua Armada, Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman tetapi semuanya membisu seperti ingin melindungi sesuatu.

“Perkara itu perlu dijelaskan dan semua ahli ingin mengetahui kebenaran. Jika mereka tidak jujur maka selama ini perjuangan kami untuk parti adalah sia-sia,” jelasnya pada sidang akhbar di sini hari ini.

Beliau yang juga Exco Biro Ke­selamatan Armada bersama lebih 30 ahli PPBM hadir menyatakan sokongan dan mendesak agar pe­mimpin parti memberi penjelasan mengenai dakwaan tersebut.

Muhammad Hafiz berkata, anak muda benar-benar mahu berjuang untuk parti tetapi jika pucuk pimpinan yang ada tidak mampu memberikan semangat yang sama, lama kelamaan keyakinan mereka semakin hilang.

“Dahulu mereka menjanjikan satu perjuangan yang bersih, tetapi kini mereka sendiri tidak bersih dengan skandal dan isu yang tidak dapat diselesaikan,” katanya.
