The Umno president, who returns on Friday, expressed concern that there might be a split in the wing if its top post was contested.
He said he had been told that Wanita Umno was facing problems with a leadership transition issue and seemed to be in a dilemma because there were many members apparently unhappy that there would be a contest for the wing’s presidency.
“I do not want to see infighting in the wing. I do not want to see a divided Wanita Umno,” he told Malaysian reporters on Monday at the sidelines of his three-day official working visit to Uzbekistan. here: Abdullah to intervene in tussle
