00:00Two UMNO leaders have hit out at Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's aide, Shamsul Iskandar Akin,

00:08after he revealed that he had decided against pushing for a recount in Pagandato in the

00:13last general election on the PKR president's orders.

00:17UMNO Information Chief Azalina Osman Said said experienced politicians like Shamsul

00:22should be more responsible when talking about election results to preserve political integrity.

00:29She added that Shamsul should have raised any objections with the election commission.

00:34Shamsul, who was one of three challengers to UMNO President Ahmad Zayed Hamidi in Pagandato,

00:39said he had initially intended to call for a recount as he was behind by only 348 votes

00:46with 800 spoiled votes.

00:48However, he was persuaded by a 2.30am call from Anwar not to proceed as Barisan Nasional

00:55had agreed to join Pakatan Harapan to form a government.

00:59Meanwhile, Zayed's daughter Nurul Hidayah said Shamsul's hallucination was a result

01:05of him being a know-it-all and perceiving himself to be a hero.

01:09She said BN and PKR can now demand the EC to investigate Shamsul's claim and sue him

01:16for his stupid statement.
