PETALING JAYA: It is “slander”, Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba says in denying Datuk Lokman Noor Adam’s claims that he had tried to get branch leaders under his Tenggara division to vote for Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein as the new Umno president.

Lokman, who is a former Umno supreme council member, claimed that Dr Adham made the call to vote for Hishammuddin during a recent trip to Surabaya, Indonesia in December.
