UMNO president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s younger brother, Abdul Hakim, has officially registered to be a lifelong PAS member.

In a video on Facebook, Parit Buntar MP Mohd Misbahul Munir Masduki announced that Zahid’s brother, Abdul Hakim Hamidi, officially joined the Perikatan Nasional component party.

“We hope his presence will further strengthen (PAS’s) relationship with Umno leaders committed to unity based on Islamic principles,” the post read.

Misbahul was also seen holding an official membership form and congratulating Hakim on his membership.

According to the Facebook post, Hakim, a former Umno member, had applied to be a lifelong PAS member.

In a statement, Hakim said his decision to join PAS should not come as a surprise as his father, Hamidi Abdul Fatah, was not only a religious teacher at Maahad Ulum Bagan Datuk but also a dedicated PAS activist who served the community. - October 16, 2024
