KUALA LUMPUR – A media statement claimed to be from Barisan Nasional (BN) secretary-general Datuk Seri Zambry Abd Kadir on the proposal of five BN parliamentarians to be appointed ministers in the unity government is false.

BN chairman Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi in denying the claims on his official Facebook page, shared the link to the false media statement.
