CERITERA SEBUAH PAPAN TANDA IKLAN DI KELANTAN (II)

Catatan saya pada 15 November 2009 (Ceritera Sebuah Papan Tanda Iklan Di Kelantan):

"Kelimanya, papan tanda iklan ini tidak mengerti apa-apa pun berkenaan kehebohan buah mulut dan catatan berita dalam media cetak dan media digital yang berkaitan dengan pengakuan Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat dan Ariffahmi Ab. Rahman bahawa mereka menerima tajaan 'pakej haji VIP' untuk menunaikan fardhu haji pada tahun ini. Malah Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat mengesahkan bahawa banyak pihak yang menawarkan penajaan kepada beliau untuk mengerjakan ibadah haji. Ariffahmi Abdul Rahman juga dilaporkan sebagai berkata bahawa amalan menaja 'tuan guru' mengerjakan haji adalah perkara biasa dalam kalangan masyarakat Kelantan."

Nampaknya papan tanda iklan itu bukan sahaja 'telah mengerti' malah telah turut meluahkan perasaan dan rasa hatinya. Apabila sebuah papan tanda iklan mula berbicara, maka adalah korbannya.

Korban pertama ialah menantu Menteri Besar Kelantan Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat, Ariffahmi Ab. Rahman. Berikut ialah laporan theStar online, hari ini 23 November 2009:

"Kelantan MB says son-in-law removed as Kelantan MB Inc's CEO

KOTA BARU: Kelantan Mentri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat announced Monday that his son-in-law Abdul Ariffahmi Abdul Rahman has been removed as the CEO of Kelantan Mentri Besar Inc.

A former corporate liaison officer of the Kelantan Mentri Besar Inc, Syed Azidi Syed Abdul Aziz, popularly known as the blogger Kickdefella, sparked a controversy after Abdul Ariffahmi terminated his contract with the state-government owned agency as corporate liaison officer on Nov 10.

He has threatened to “tell all” about the alleged abuse of power and financial mismanagement by its CEO Abdul Ariffahmi.

He also claimed in his blog that Nik Aziz had asked his son-in law to step down.

Abdul Ariffahmi, who is under probe by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission, has vehemently denied allegations of financial irregularities involving him and the entity he leads.

Nik Abdul Aziz too has come under public scrutiny after he accepted, and later cancelled, the sponsorship of RM65,000 to perform the haj.

The trip, which was to have included Abdul Ariffahmi, was said to have been paid by an individual who is alleged to be one of the contractors who benefited from Kelantan Mentri Besar Inc’s projects."
