BN secretary-general Annuar Musa has appealed for Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin to be given time to resolve the Covid-19 crisis.

He said when cases subside, the government can dissolve parliament for the 15th general election.

The federal territories minister was commenting on a news report, in which Dr Mahathir Mohamad's party Pejuang named the 95-year-old politician as the most suitable candidate to replace Muhyiddin.
