Tajuddin admits offered to join PASPusat to contest GE15 under PerikatanM but stayed loyal with umnoonline
Tajuddin, a former Pasir Salak MP, had been sacked from the party’s supreme council in June. “I have been with Umno for a long time. I entered Umno in 1975 when I was 25 years old. From young to old, Umno contributed a lot to me.“But I wouldn’t have left Umno because there was a problem with me not being nominated . I received offers. When my name was not listed, I was offered by PAS to join and become a PN candidate but I declined. “I am not those who accepted and left Umno.
“Yes it is true before this general election we pushed for ‘no DAP, no Anwar’ because we thought Umno was dominant. “We felt Umno was capable but the results showed otherwise, we only obtained 30 seats. “So what are our choices? Either we worked with the unity government or sit on the sideline as Opposition,” he said.
