KUALA LUMPUR: Umno president Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi permitted a man brandishing a "Justice for Najib Razak" banner to step onto the stage during the party's 2026 general assembly. As Zahid wrapped up his address, security tried to halt the man, but Zahid stepped in, inviting him to share the platform. "Even though I am speaking, I allow him to come up," Zahid declared.
