Umno raises almost RM1 million for Najib solidarity fund
KUALA LUMPUR: Umno has raised almost RM1 million for the Najib Razak Solidarity Fund as of this morning, its secretary-general Datuk Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki said.
Umno has raised nearly RM1 million for the Najib Razak Solidarity Fund, according to Secretary-General Datuk Dr Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki. The fund, launched by Umno yesterday, aims to assist former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak in settling his RM50 million fine. As of 9:30am, the fundraising initiative has reached almost RM1 million, with Asyraf urging supporters to continue contributing even with small amounts like RM10.
The fundraising drive followed the Federal Territories Pardons Board's announcement of a conditional pardon for Najib, allowing him to serve the remainder of his sentence under house detention until August 23, 2028, contingent upon the payment of the RM50 million fine.
