The Semporna UMNO division has restructured its committee to further strengthen the division, says Semporna UMNO division acting chief, Datuk Seri Nasir Tun Sakaran.

Speaking to reporters after chairing a Semporna UMNO division committee meeting, he said the restructuring was necessary to ensure the division remained strong and relevant.

He added that the restructuring involved the appointment of Datuk Ramlee Marahaban as the division's new information chief, replacing Datuk Razak Tun Sakaran.

Nasir said Razak was appointed division treasurer, replacing Datuk Mohd Lan Allani, while Mohd Syam Mohd Muksan replaced Rashid Maamun as division secretary.

He was confident that the newly-appointed Semporna UMNO division committee which had vast experience in politics could establish a strong working team.

The Senallang state assemblyman also reminded UMNO members in Semporna not to be easily influenced by allegations of certain quarters that the UMNO division would be dissolved.
