Bashah Md HanipahALOR SETAR, April 8 – The Menteri Besar must give proof Umno is the culprit in Kolej Universiti Insaniah (Kuin) being barred from using a building on its new campus as a temporary hostel.  Kedah Umno Liaison Committee chairman Datuk Ahmad Bashah Md Hanipah said, Datuk Seri Azizan Abdul Razak must submit proof to back his allegation or apologise.

He said, Umno also wanted proof on his claims that Umno members had lodged a report with the Higher Education Ministry (KPT) which forced 1,000 students of Kuin to seek accommodation outside the campus.

“Azizan must apologise to all Umno members over his wild allegation if he fails to provide proof. This is not the first time he accused Umno. He often accused Umno of masterminding the crisis in Kuin,” he said in a statement, here, today.

Azizan, when launching the Kedah opposition pact’s manifesto in Kota Sarang Semut Saturday night, said, Umno caused 1,000 students of Kuin to move to temporary accommodation in Kuala Ketil, as the hostel was not completed. The Menteri Besar claimed the incident took place after the management of Kuin failed to use a building in the campus as a temporary accommodation after Umno lodged a report with KPT.

Azizan had accused the staff of Kuin as being agents of Umno after they demonstrated against the management of Kuin.
They refuted Azizan’s accusation, saying they did so in the interst of the state government-owned college.  Ahmad Bashah said, the failure of the state government to administer Kuin properly and its overwhelming ambition which did not measure up to its capability, led to the problem faced by Kuin.

He said, Azizan blamed Umno to absolve himself from the problems in Kuin, especially after realising that the issue would be used in the campaigns during the general election.
