PONTIAN: Pontian Umno has named Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob as the Prime Minister candidate for Barisan Nasional.
According to the Star, Pontian Umno division chief Datuk Seri Hasni Mohamad said that this is one of the three resolutions the division has come out with during its meeting here on Saturday (Oct 15).
“Pontian Umno has agreed to submit a resolution for Ismail Sabri to be Prime Minister if Barisan Nasional wins the 15th general election.
“For us, the guarantee of him to be the Prime Minister is more suitable compared to only having him as Barisan’s poster boy,” the Star quoted him as saying in a press conference after the Pontian Umno meeting.
