  "summary": "The Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan, Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir, has formally revoked the appointments of 10 executive council members, according to a state government gazette. The revocation took effect on September 20, 2026, following the members' alleged breach of their oath of loyalty. The oath, which they signed on August 7, 2026, required them to pledge loyalty to the Ruler and the Royal Institution, protect the sovereignty of the Negeri Sembilan Constitution, and recognise the authority vested in the Dewan Keadilan dan Undang. The cancellation of their appointments was made under Article XXXVIII(5) of the Laws of the Constitution of Negeri Sembilan 1959, which stipulates that State Executive Council members hold office for as long as the Ruler consents. The 10 affected Exco members include Datuk Mohd Faizal Ramli, Datuk Haji Zaifulbahri Haji Idris, Datuk Mustapha Nagoor, and six others.",
