MB N Sembilan nafi Zahid terbabit usaha jatuhkan Tuanku Muhriz

Negeri Sembilan's Chief Minister Ismail Lasim has denied allegations that Umno President Zahid Hamidi is involved in any efforts to topple Sultan Muhriz Muhtar, according to a report in The Straits Times. The Chief Minister's statement comes in response to news published by The Straits Times on September 8, 2026.

Ismail emphasized his support for Umno's president and the entire party leadership, which consistently upholds, maintains, and protects the Raja Melayu institution and the principles of the Raja Berperlembagaan. The Chief Minister expressed hope that the adat-related issue in Negeri Sembilan could be resolved well and with wisdom, in order to ensure stability, harmony, and prosperity for the state's people.

Earlier, Ismail, along with his state government, expressed full loyalty and allegiance to Sultan Muhriz. He stated that, as per the report of the Fourteenth Secretary-General's Office, the state government is committed to the principles of loyalty to the state government, in particular, the faithful execution of the state government's duties, and the signature of Sultan Muhriz's abdication proclamation, which was reportedly signed by Ismail at the Laguna Blue Palace in Port Dickson last month.

Ismail stressed his current focus on fulfilling his responsibilities as Chief Minister for the benefit of the people and the state.
