ISKANDAR PUTERI: Members of the Iskandar Puteri City Council (MBIP) have turned to the Johor Mentri Besar to resolve a rift between the councillors and mayor Datuk Adib Azhari Daud involving a Ramadan bazaar. This comes after the MBIP councillors staged a walkout during its full council meeting on May 26 in protest against alleged misuse of power by Adib.
Gelang Patah councillor Mohd Azam Mektar, who led the walkout with 17 others, accused Adib of changing a decision on a Ramadan bazaar’s location without informing them.“The mayor has yet to explain himself or justify why the decision change was made despite being given 15 days to do so,” he said after handing over a memorandum to the Johor Mentri Besar in Kota Iskandar yesterday.
