Zahid meets Negeri Sembilan MB over proclamation issue
The high-level meeting was joined by Umno vice-presidents Johari Ghani, Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail and Khaled Nordin.
Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi is set to meet with Negeri Sembilan's menteri besar Ismail Lasim to discuss a recent proclamation demanding the removal of the state ruler. The meeting took place at the World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur, where Umno's 2026 general assembly is being held. Along with Zahid, vice-presidents Johari Ghani, Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail, and Khaled Nordin attended the discussion.
Ismail claimed that he signed the proclamation under duress and has reported the incident to the police. However, he later rejected the document's validity, stating that it did not adhere to the procedures outlined in Article 10 of the Laws of the Constitution of Negeri Sembilan 1959. In response, Zahid assured that he would meet with Ismail to seek an explanation regarding the matter.
