  "account": "Pemegang hukum Negeri Sembilan, Dusuki Mokhtar, confirmed on Thursday that the disqualification of 10 state exco members is legal, citing Section 38(5) of the State Government Body Act 1959. This announcement aligns with the ruling issued on 20th September, which aligns with Article 38(5) of the State Government Body Act 1959. According to the article, an exco member other than the Chief Minister holds their position for as long as the Yang Di Pertuan Besar, Tuanku Muhriz, deems it necessary. The State Government declared the disqualification and removal of these ten exco members on Thursday, 20th September, as they violated their oath of loyalty to Tuanku Muhriz. The ten exco members were all from Umno, except for one each from MCA, PAS, and Wawasan. Their removal came a week after they released a statement supporting the dismissal of Tuanku Muhriz as the Yang Di Pertuan Besar, which subsequently gained the support of the Chief Minister, Ismail Lasim. The matter is currently under review by the State Court of Appeal and the State Legal and Public Prosecution Department.",
