Ahmad Maslan sits out Umno veep race, making way for 3 Johor contenders

Umno secretary-general Ahmad Maslan will make way for three Johor candidates, including Pontian Umno chief Hasni Mohammad who is in the running for the vice-presidents’ posts.

While sitting out of the vice-presidency race, Ahmad, however, reportedly said he will be challenging Hasni for the Pontian Umno chief post, aside from having previously confirmed that he would be defending his Umno supreme council seat.
