Ahmad Maslan: 'No-contest motion did not breach Umno constitution'

KUALA LUMPUR: The passing of a no-contest motion for the president and deputy president posts during the recent 2022 Umno General Assembly did not breach the party's constitution or rules, said party secretary-general Datuk Seri Ahmad Maslan.

"Everything went smoothly. About 90 per cent of the delegates agreed that the president and deputy president posts would not be contested.There have been many times in Umno's 77-year history that the positions have not been contested," he said in a Facebook posting today (Feb 3).
