GE14 | Former MyPPP president M Kayveas has said he will only address allegations of his sacking after the general election.

"To all media calling me for a response, not that I don't want to say anything. I will do a press conference after GE14.

"So that focus will be on the elections. That should take priority over this fly which came to sit on my hand," wrote Kayveas on Twitter.

Earlier today, Kayveas had declared that he had resigned as party president, moments ahead of a press conference by MyPPP supreme council members on their decision to sack him from the party.

MyPPP deputy secretary-general Simon Sabapathy said the decision was made pursuant to a directive by BN secretary-general Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor to take disciplinary action against Kayveas.

Simon said the letter had implied that Kayveas had breached MyPPP's constitution when he allegedly made unilateral decisions on seat allocations, and that the party could be "asked to leave BN."

Kayveas became MyPPP president in 1993 following long bouts of internal power struggles. He ruled the party for the next 25 years, and in 2004 became the party's first elected lawmaker in three decades.

Since then, he has been trying to engineer a bigger role for MyPPP in BN, culminating in the coalition granting them the right to field five candidates in the 2013 polls.

That electoral outing was a disaster for MyPPP, save for the contest for the Guchil state seat in Kelantan, which party lost, but only by 492 votes.

For the upcoming general election, MyPPP was allocated only one seat, Segambut, instead of the Cameron Highlands seat which the party has been lobbying for over two years.
