Kepong UMNO chief, Datuk Rizuan Abd Hamid stressed he was willing to fight with party president, Datuk Seri Najib Razak until his last breath.

He said, Najib had contributed so much for the country by introducing better changes as compared to previous prime ministers.

“The 1Malaysia ideology, People’s Aid Scheme (BR1M), schooling aid, 1Malaysia Clinics, various 1Malaysia brands, all these to assist those from the lower income level whether from urban or rural communities,” he said when opening the Kepong UMNO delegates’ meeting at Hilton Hotel, KL Sentral on Sunday.

According to Rizuan, Kepong UMNO members are required to support Najib as the Prime Minister and UMNO President and need to pledge their loyalty to Najib.

“I am willing to die for Najib. Don’t touch Najib. We will die with Najib. That’s our (Kepong UMNO members) pledge. To die in politics is better than to die needlessly,” he said.

Rizuan said, although many had pressured Najib to step down, at this moment in time, there is no one better qualified to replace him as Prime Minister of Malaysia.

He said, full support had been thrown behind Najib because he is intelligent and has a great mind.

“Why do you all want him to step down? Is there anyone more qualified than Najib? Tell me, is there? Even Zahid Hamidi had said he is not yet prepared,” Rizuan said.
