Broken leg, unbroken spirit: BN’s Jeram candidate vows to campaign onward

Datuk Mohd Zaidy Abdul Kadir determined to resume campaigning, even in wheelchair

5:52 PM MYT

 

JEMPOL – Datuk Mohd Zaidy Abdul Kadir has a broken leg but not a broken spirit.

The Barisan Nasional (BN) candidate for the Jeram Padang constituency in Negri Sembilan fractured his left leg in a road accident early today but has vowed to continue campaigning in the state election, even if he has to do it in a wheelchair.

The Ford Ranger that Zaidy was driving from Bahau to Palong via Jalan Pasir Besar crashed at about 3am, said Tampin district police chief Anuwal Ab Wahab.

His aide, Muhammad Khairul Ahnaf Baharom, who was with him, is unconscious at Tuanku Ampuan Najihah Hospital in Kuala Pilah.

Zaidy, when met at Jempoh Hospital, said that once he has been discharged from the hospital, he will go down to the ground to resume campaigning in a wheelchair with the assistance of his wife.

“My request to the BN campaign machinery in Jeram Padang is to continue working, adhere to the strategies planned, and retain the seat for BN,” he said.

He prayed for the health of his aide, Khairul.

Zaidy is engaged in a straight fight with Datuk Seri S. Surash of Perikatan Nasional (PN) for the seat in the state election on August 12.

Surash, in a Facebook post, said he rushed to the Jempol Hospital to see Zaidy upon learning of the accident.

“I gave him words of encouragement. Our friendship is intact, although we are from different political parties,” he said.

The state election in Negri Sembilan is being held simultaneously with that in Kedah, Kelantan, Penang, Selangor, and Terengganu. – July 31, 2023
