Nobody can stop Najib Abdul Razak from becoming the new Umno president. Period.
That was what the sixth Umno president Abdullah Ahmad Badawi told reporters in an apparent bid to dispel any speculations that the transition of power will not take place.
Abdullah made the statement following queries by reporters that a splinter group in the party had tried to apply for Registrar of Societies to stop the party’s 59th AGM from taking place.
It is also believed that the group in doing so had wanted to stop Najib from taking over as the party’s seventh president.
“Who are doing all this? Why do you believe all this things. It can never happen. How can anybody stop the Umno AGM.
“Nothing can stop what has already been decided. Najib will become Umno president soon. And when there is confirmation, there will be a transition,” he told a press conference held after the closed-door presidential briefing to party delegates.
However, he said the transition plan was not discussed at all during the presidential briefing to other party delegates early this evening as the matter has already been accepted by party members.
“It is a topic that everyone have already known and understood,” he said.

No date has been set for the power transfer and it is still no clear when Najib will be sworn in as the new prime minister.
There are speculations that Abdullah may announce the date at the assembly.
