“I am not afraid of whatever action against me. I am an individual who believe everything happens for a reason.
“You will only know the power of the position when you are handling it. Take it if you feel you are good enough, but don’t regret when you have it,” he said.

Led by Kedah UMNO deputy chairman Datuk Ahmad Bashah Md Hanipah, the group said among the reasons for the loss of confidence was because Mukhriz failed to make strategic planning for the party to face the 14th general election.
Ahmad Bashah said that since Mukhriz's appointment as the menteri besar, there had been many problems including the denial of support for the UMNO President and offering of views which confused the people in the state.
