Kedah regency council meets 19 BN reps, media barred



The Kedah regency council has been holding a meeting with 19 BN assemblypersons since 2pm today at Wisma Darul Aman over the issue of state Umno's call to remove Menteri Besar Mukhriz Mahathir.
The meeting is held following Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's meeting with the Kedah sultan to seek approval to remove Mukhriz as MB.
It is learnt that the Kedah sultan, who is also the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, has requested Najib to provide three more names as potential candidates.
Earlier, it was highly speculated that state Umno deputy chief Ahmad Bashah Md Hanapiah would be the new MB.
Bashah kicked off the Kedah MB crisis when he together with 14 division leaders called for a press conference to oust Mukhriz (photo), who started his term after the 2013 national polls when Umno wrested the state from PAS.
Mukhriz's removal appeared imminent as Bashah said he has obtained the majority - 19 out of 36 Kedah assemblypersons.
Najib also reportedly told the BN reps when he met them yesterday, to accept the new MB.
Reporters are not allowed into Wisma Darul Aman, Kedah state secretariat and state executive council building.
However, they were treated to packed chicken rice and mineral water by Ramli Hassan, who runs a restaurant in Alor Setar.
It is learnt that Ramli is a supporter of Bashah. -Mkini
