Umno's Ketereh MP Annuar Musa, the party's most vocal pro-Perikatan Nasional (PN) leader, claimed the party's leadership was suppressing dissenting opinions in the two-day Umno general assembly, which began today.

He claimed the party had replaced all speakers with those approved by Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, who has been pushing to sever ties with Bersatu and PN in the next general election.
