Sandakan Puteri Umno meeting deemed invalid

NST | The Sandakan Umno division today confirmed that its Puteri wing delegates' meeting held last Thursday has been nullified.
Sandakan Umno head Datuk Ampong Puyung it was due to certain technicalities, including not getting permission for holding the meeting from the division.

“We have referred the matter to the State Umno liaison office and are waiting for a reply,” he said in a statement here today.

At the meeting, Siti Haiba Majid and Salbiah Harun respectively were declared winners uncontested as the head and deputy head.
