KUALA LUMPUR: A meeting between Negri Sembilan assemblymen and Umno president Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi over the state’s political crisis ended on Sunday (Sept 27) without any announcement to the media.
Reporters who had waited at Menara Dato Onn since 7pm did not see the assemblymen leave. It is believed they used another exit.
None of the assemblymen approached by reporters before the meeting commented on the talks.
It was reported earlier that Ahmad Zahid would meet 25 assemblymen from Barisan Nasional, PAS and Parti Wawasan Negara to discuss a way forward.
The meeting came a week after the Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negri Sembilan, Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir, revoked the appointments of 10 state executive councillors with immediate effect. The palace said they had breached their oath of office by agreeing on Sept 15 to remove him as Ruler. The revocation was formalised in a state gazette on Thursday.
Photographs of the 10 were removed from the state government’s official portal on Friday (Sept 25).
