ANWAR WILLING TO VALIDATE WHATEVER MEANS TO BECOME PM - NAJIB

BUKIT MERTAJAM, Aug 23 (Bernama) -- Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak Saturday reminded voters in Permatang Pauh not to be hoodwinked by Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's promises as he was willing to validate anything to achieve his ambition of becoming prime minister.

The deputy prime minister said Anwar tried to topple the deputy prime minister then, the late Tun Ghafar Baba, who was also the Umno deputy president.

"I was in the cabinet when Anwar was the finance minister. I was also in the wawasan group when he wanted to topple Ghafar as party deputy president.

"I can tell a lot about how he toppled Ghafar, and who carried his (Anwar's) bag here and there. You can guess what was in the bag when he was contesting the party elections. Full of money. Today, he talks about corruption. Who then was involved in corruption?" Najib said during his visit to the Barisan Nasional operations room for the Permatang Pauh by-election, in Simpang Tiga, Kubang Ulu, here.
