GE2025 backup candidate Firdaus Daud to take on grassroots duties in Kembangan, Faishal Ibrahim's former ward
Mr Ahmad Firdaus Daud, who currently serves as second adviser in Punggol, is not new to grassroots work, says Speaker of Parliament Seah Kian Peng.
Ahmad Firdaus Daud, currently serving as second adviser in Punggol, will take on grassroots duties in Kembangan starting September 1, 2025, according to Speaker of Parliament Seah Kian Peng. Firdaus, a People's Action Party (PAP) member since 2016, previously expressed willingness to stand as a PAP candidate. He currently works with Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong in Punggol, where grassroots advisers are appointed by the People's Association to guide organisations in engagement and outreach efforts.
Firdaus will initially serve as second adviser in both Punggol and Kembangan, with plans to focus solely on Kembangan in the future. Former Acting Minister-in-charge of Muslim Affairs Faishal Ibrahim resigned from politics in July after being found to have interactions with a woman that fell short of the standards expected of a political office holder and MP.
