COMMENT Former law minister Zaid Ibrahim and PAS lawmaker Mahfuz Omar have set rolling a bandwagon aimed at removing Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak.

Both have suggested ex-prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad as the person to lead the movement.

Unaffiliated political activist Zaid has urged the people to unite behind Mahathir and has even recommended a date (March 27) as suitable for a massive demonstration of public intent to have the PM ousted from his office.

Meanwhile Mahfuz - who is the MP for Pokok Sena - has set the cat among the canaries in his party, by going out on a limb to invite Mahathir to head the 'Remove Najib' movement.
