He said rumours of a Cabinet reshuffle that had been spread could have been a personal statement made by some leaders, and did not represent any party in Perikatan Nasional (PN).
“I had a meeting with the prime minister (Muhyiddin Yassin) yesterday and, during the discussion, we did not see the need for a Cabinet reshuffle at the moment.
“If the time comes when the Cabinet is seen to be not functioning well, then the decision to reshuffle the Cabinet can be made.
“So there is no need to put pressure on the prime minister to reshuffle the Cabinet,” he told reporters after a dinner with members of the media in Melaka here last night.
Redzuan, who is PPBM Supreme Council member, said all PN coalition party leaders — those holding Cabinet posts and those who are not — should unite to strengthen the government’s administration for the benefit and well-being of the people.
He said all political party leaders should be responsible and fight for the people, especially to alleviate their worries over the country’s political situation, which is still unstable, and the economic situation, which is affected by the spread of Covid-19.
Redzuan, who is Alor Gajah MP, said leaders who are selfish should be rejected because they would have a negative impact, especially in the government’s efforts to curb the spread of the pandemic.
“If there are leaders, any leader, who states he will give his support if he is released from the law, then this is not right. This leader should be rejected because the people will suffer,” he said.
He said Muhyiddin should not bow to demands made by some quarters, including those calling for him to step down, as he had been performing his duties well.
On media reports claiming that Muhyiddin is expected to meet Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi and PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang to discuss the current political situation in the country today, Redzuan said the three leaders are likely to reach a consensus to end speculation on the Cabinet reshuffle.
