It's an Erdogan vs ulama showdown

The spotlight is trained squarely on the contest for the deputy presidency as Mat Sabu fights off a challenge from Nik Amar.

The power struggle between the ulama and Erdogans in PAS will be played out in the contest for the No 2 post between Mohamad Sabu and Datuk Nik Amar Nik Abdullah.

DATUK Nik Aziz Nik Mat’s son Nik Abduh is known for having political opinions that are quite independent of his father’s politics. But as many people would know by now, Nik Abduh is, at heart, a filial and respectful son.
