SHAH ALAM:
A claim by a food delivery man that his motorcycle skidded at Bulatan Kayangan here after he passed through dozens of plastic fans with the PPBM logo has caught the attention of party president Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

According to university student Mohamad Azezul Mohd Omar, 18, the incident occurred on Saturday at about 6pm when he was on his way to deliver food to a customer.

“When I arrived at the location,I found many plastic fans with the red PPBM logo strewn in the middle of the road, causing my motorcycle to skid at Bulatan Kayangan.

“I am claiming damages from the relevant parties to repair my motorcycle and my handphone which was cracked in the incident,” he told Bernama when contacted.

Azezul, who works part-time as a food delivery man, said as a result of the accident, he suffered injuries to his left leg.

He uploaded an account of the event on his Twitter account under the name Vzezul.

“I had an accident just now near the Kayangan roundabout in Shah Alam because of this thing. Please retweet until Tun M sees this. I want to claim damages for my motor,” he said on his Twitter account.

A message on Mahathir’s official Twitter account asked a PPBM official to look into the matter and contact the student.

“Dear @PPBMofficial, please look into this matter and contact this gentleman. Thank you,” the message said in response to the status posted by Vzezul.

Azezul thanked the prime minister for his concern.
