SUNGAI PETANI: Former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad will rejoin Umno in a day or two, his son Datuk Mukhriz said yesterday.
"The most important thing for me is Dr Mahathir's return to Umno," he said after visiting the Taman Joget homestay here.
Dr Mahathir quit the party in May last year, citing as reason his lack of confidence in the party's leadership.-
Mukhriz said his defeat in the contest for the Umno Youth chief''s post had not dampened his spirit to contribute to the party.
Mukhriz said that he was prepared to accept any responsibility given by Datuk Seri Najib Razak, who is taking his oath of office as the new prime minister today, succeeding Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi
