MB, exco meeting with Tunku Nadzaruddin cancelled over security concerns
SEREMBAN: The meeting between Negri Sembilan Menteri Besar Datuk Ismail Lasim and members of the state executive council (Exco) with Tunku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja'afar, scheduled for this morning, has been cancelled over security concerns.
Seremban: State executive council members were spotted arriving at Hotel Royale Chulan in Seremban, though they remained off-site. Media outlets arrived, yet received no further details on the anticipated meeting between the Menteri Besar and the exco with Tunku Nazdaruddin Tuanku Jaafar. The ongoing Negri Sembilan crisis began in April when the Undang Yang Empat removed Tuanku Muhriz as the Yang di-Pertuan Besar.
In response, Tunku Nazdaruddin was appointed as the 12th Yang di-Pertuan Besar. However, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim maintains that Tuanku Muhriz is still the recognized Yang di-Pertuan Besar. Tuanku Muhriz subsequently dismissed all exco members, with Menteri Besar Ismail Lasim contesting the legality of the removal.
