Ahmad Said returns to Umno and pledges support to Najib

Former Terengganu Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Ahmad Said has vowed to give his full backing to Umno and party president Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak after retracting his resignation.


Announcing his return to Umno, the Kijal assemblyman said he apologised to Najib over his outburst and Najib in turn apologised to him over the misunderstanding over the wedding date of his daughter.

He told a press conference at his official residence here that he had met the Prime Minister in Putrajaya earlier in the day.


"At the meeting, we agreed that it was a minor misunderstanding. We both apologised and agreed that the matter has been resolved," he said.


On Monday, Ahmad quit Umno hours after he was replaced by Ahmad Razif Abdul Rahman.
