No word from Mohamaddin on leaving Bersatu, says Hamzah

Bersatu secretary-general Hamzah Zainudin today said he had yet to receive a letter from Lahad Datu Member MP Mohamaddin Ketapi regarding his decision to quit the party.

“I have not received any letter from him (Mohamaddin). He announced it… you know, sometimes people have all sort of feelings,” he said, commenting on Mohamaddin’s announcement today that he had quit Bersatu, less than a year after he joined the party after exiting Warisan last year.

Mohamaddin said he decided to quit as he was not given a role or the trust to strengthen the party, especially at the grassroots level in the Lahad Datu parliamentary constituency and Segama state constituency, after more than six months with Bersatu.

According to Hamzah, Mohamaddin, who is also the Segama assemblyman, sent him a message earlier this morning to discuss the matter.

“He sent me a message this morning… I will talk to him because he said he wanted to talk to me,” he said.

On Oct 30 last year, Mohamaddin announced that he was leaving Warisan. He joined Bersatu on Nov 26 last year.
