BN MPs signed a declaration supporting PN, not SDs, Nazri clarifies

 

Padang Rengas MP Nazri Abdul Aziz confirmed that a meeting among Umno MPs had taken place at Wisma Perwira - a building in Kuala Lumpur owned by the Defence Ministry - on Sunday.

However, he clarified that the MPs signed a letter of declaration, not a statutory declaration backing the Perikatan Nasional government.

"I confirm the meeting. But we did not sign any SDs. An SD can only be signed in front of a commissioner of oaths.

"We did a letter of declaration to defend the PN government," Nazri (above) told Malaysiakini.

Yesterday Malaysiakini quoted a Sinar Harian report that some 30 BN lawmakers, including representatives from MCA and MIC, attended the Sunday night secret meeting chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

It was said that MCA president Wee Ka Siong also communicated with the participants at the meeting, via Zoom.

Prior to the meeting, Ismail confirmed a statement of support for Muhyiddin by 40 out of 42 BN MPs, which was issued after a meeting in Parliament last Thursday.

This came after a royal rebuke against PN had once again raised questions over its legitimacy as the government.

Ismail’s clarification followed a dispute raised by BN executive secretary Mohamad Sahfri Ab Aziz, who denounced the statement as fake and added that there was an issue with the use of the BN letterhead. - Mkini
