Tok Mat ‘bertikam lidah’, tak boleh masuk pusat penamaan
Dilaporkan timbalan presiden Umno itu tidak puas hati namun pegawai bertugas halang atas sebab sudah lebih kuota individu.
Barisan Nasional deputy chief Mohamad Hasan was reportedly barred from entering the candidate registration center for the Lendu DUN constituency in Alor Gajah, Melaka, due to exceeding the individual quota. According to Utusan Malaysia, Mohamad, who also serves as Umno deputy president, desired to replace BN candidate Abu Hakim Abdul Wahid in the process.
However, SPR officials prevented him from entering the registration center, causing a dispute between the two parties. A confidential witness stated that Mohamad questioned the decision as he possessed a seat on the SPR panel. He also asked the purpose of the seat if he remained barred from entering the candidate registration center.
The official then explained that Mohamad's presence was considered exceeding the individual quota allowed to enter the center alongside the candidate. According to the candidate registration process, only candidates, campaigners, and supporters are permitted inside the relevant centers, aside from the candidates themselves. The situation improved when Mohamad decided to leave the location.
Candidate registration for the Lendu DUN constituency continued as usual when Abu Hakim faced his single opposition from the Pakatan Rakyat, Nazri Ramli.
