PRIME Minister Najib Razak’s son, Nazifuddin Najib, tonight appealed to his father’s nemesis, Dr Mahathir Mohamad, to remember second prime minister Abdul Razak Hussein’s legacy and return to Umno.
Nazifuddin, who is Razak’s grandson, said if Dr Mahathir appreciated Razak’s legacy, he would protect Najib just as Najib had defended Dr Mahathir during Umno’s crisis in 1987, which led to the party being declared illegal.
“
His father was once Dr Mahathir’s protege, but has now become the target of the former prime minister and the opposition coalition he leads, Pakatan Harapan, in the 14th general election, which must be held by August.
“
“It was Razak who helped Dr Mahathir return to Umno to strengthen and defend the party, to lead Malaysia in the world. Not to destroy Umno.
“Dr Mahathir, return to the right path, the path that Razak charted for you to become the fourth prime minister of Malaysia.”
Razak, who was prime minister from 1970 to 1976, had readmitted Dr Mahathir into Umno in 1972 after the latter was expelled in 1969.
At the time, he had been critical of the first prime minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj.
Nazifuddin said he had read comments by Dr Mahathir’s wife, Dr Siti Hasmah Mohamad Ali, in which she spoke fondly of Razak and owed to the late leader her husband’s rise to become prime minister.
“Yes, it is true that Razak was responsible for bringing Dr Mahathir back to Umno.
“
Dr Mahathir, who was prime minister from 1981 to 2003, quit Umno in 2016 over corruption allegations against Najib, which the current prime minister has denied.
The 93-year-old formed opposition party Bersatu the same year, and was recently named PH’s prime minister candidate if the opposition pact wins GE14. – January 19, 2018.

Rakyat is Najib really bad and Mahathir's dictatorial Brain all good??
Did you rakyat vote correctly on 9th of May 2018??
I will stand improving Barisan National foundations stipulated by the early founders such as the late Onn Jaafar.Needless to say I am old but I will stand by the foundations for a UNITED Malaysia till I die.
Mahathir also should stand by Unity among all Malaysians as did the late OnnJaafar ,
Mahathir never advocates Unity among peoples because he is not a sports person.Mahathir never encourages sports but we all know he probably encouraged his family members to play a pack of cards that later ended with gambling as happened with losses on International FOREX TRADINGS.
Sport is a game of partnerships of 2 or many.This is to tell you that a man who doesnt play sports is ruling Malaysia now.Sad, really sad for all Malaysians.
