Rafizi Ramli says Nurul Izzah Anwar has to win the race for the PKR deputy presidency or Malaysians would read her defeat as party members rejecting Anwar Ibrahim.
00:00Rafizi Ramli has called on PKR delegates to vote for his rival, Nuru Iza Anwar, as the party's next deputy president.
00:11He said it would look bad on PKR President and Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim if his daughter were to lose the race for the deputy presidency.
00:20Rafizi said at a campaign event in Kedah last night that the party election could not have any other result because Nuru Iza's loss means that Anwar is being rejected.
00:32The economy minister also advised Nuru Iza supporters to exercise caution in defending her as a candidate, particularly in addressing concerns and claims of nepotism.

00:54He previously said PKR leaders cannot escape being attacked with accusations of nepotism by their rivals now that Nuru Iza is running for the PKR deputy president's post.
