‘Apa lagi masalah’, Jalaluddin nafi mahu jatuhkan MB N Sembilan
Adun Pertang berkata perkara itu tidak berasas untuk dilakukan selepas BN berjaya memenangi PRN 1 Ogos lalu.
Kuala Lumpur: Umno’s Negeri Sembilan chief, Jalaluddin Alias, insists he has no intention of removing the state’s Chief Minister, Ismail Lasim, and requests all parties support him. (Picture from Facebook) In an interview with Sinar Harian, Jalaluddin dismissed allegations of political motive to overthrow the Chief Minister or the royal institution, stating that such actions are not justified following the Barisan Nasional’s (BN) victory in the Negeri Sembilan PRN on August 1st.
"The elections are over and I no longer hold the Chief Minister position, having previously declared my desire not to accept any exco role." He questioned the continued accusations against him, demanding evidence if they were true. Jalaluddin, who is also a state representative, addressed the allegations of attempting to pressure Chief Minister Ismail Lasim to sign a document to downgrade him.
He said the decision by 14 Umno MPs to withdraw support from Aminuddin Harun for the Chief Minister position earlier stemmed from a loss of confidence in leadership during the subsequent state administration crisis. "Would I want to dismantle the government I have fought to uphold for so long? I am happy with the aim of ensuring BN once again leads Negeri Sembilan, which has now been achieved.
That is my main goal," he said. Jalaluddin reiterated his openness to accepting the Chief Minister position and requested full support from all parties. He emphasized that after the new government is formed, everyone should focus on their duties and ensure smooth state administration. BN won 18 Dun seats in the PRN, forming a new government with Perikatan Nasional, which secured a two-thirds majority.
When campaigning, Jalaluddin was mentioned as the Chief Minister, but the post was instead filled by Ismail, who is also a Juasseh MP. Earlier, Jalaluddin also dismissed a call for him to boycott the installation ceremony and take the oath of Chief Minister, saying the invitation was accepted too late.
