  "account": "Umno vice-president Johari Ghani has urged Barisan Nasional (BN) to clarify the Negeri Sembilan constitutional crisis to prevent any accusations that the party was involved in the attempted removal of Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir as Yang Dipertuan Besar. The coalition must properly explain the situation to avoid misunderstandings and problems, Ghani said, according to Berita Harian. The dispute arose after a group of territorial chiefs sought the removal of Tuanku Muhriz, leading to the dismissal of the state executive council for supporting their proclamation. However, the Attorney-General's Chambers has ruled the attempt as unconstitutional. The crisis has resulted in legal battles between the territorial chiefs and the Negeri Sembilan royal court, with suits and counter-suits now pending. Ghani also asked if this constitutional crisis could impact BN's performance in the upcoming Melaka state election on November 14.",
