MK Ibrahim Abd Rahman has been elected the new Negeri Sembilan Amanah chairperson for the 2019-2022 term.

The state Amanah vice-chairperson III will be replacing Zulkefly Mohamad Omar who is also the state legislative assembly speaker.

The appointment was announced by state party Convention Committee director Mohd Zainuddin Mohamad at the 4th Negeri Sembilan Convention in Seremban today.

The convention was officiated by Amanah deputy president Salahuddin Ayub, who is also the agriculture and agro-based minister.

Zulkefly, who lost in the Seremban Amanah committee member election last September, however, was elected the state party vice-chairperson II replacing Suhaimi Kassim.

The election process for 17 main posts including the chairperson, deputy chairperson, vice-chairperson and committee members went smoothly with 106 delegates casting their votes.
