In a statement today, it said that Umno and BN would overlook all ideological differences for the sake of the state’s people to ensure that a stable government can be formed immediately.

“In extraordinary times such as these, the interests of Negeri Sembilan’s people overrule all party interests.

“Umno and BN have always been pragmatic and inclusive. We believe this united majority can provide a new and more solid narrative to drive the state’s development and defend its customs,” it said.

Earlier today, Negeri Sembilan opposition leader Hanifah Abu Baker said PN was ready to work with BN to form a new state government, after BN’s 14 assemblymen withdrew their support for menteri besar Aminuddin Harun.

State Umno chief Jalaluddin Alias had announced the retraction of support, saying it was linked to the ongoing crisis involving four chieftains seeking to remove the Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan, Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir, from his position.
