Selangor Menteri Besar Mohamed Azmin Ali may be in for a tough fight if he decided to defend his Gombak parliamentary seat, as Umno de facto deputy president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has taken a personal interest in ensuring a BN victory.

Zahid has ordered the Gombak Umno division leadership to meet him in two weeks time to discuss their election plans.

"We will plan our strategy, let big brother (me) sit in as the nahkoda (admiral)," Zahid said at the launch of the Gombak Umno annual meeting in Kuala Lumpur today.
