1MDB TRIAL | Former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak explained that he replaced Ahmad Husni Hanadzlah as former finance minister II with Johari Abdul Ghani as the latter was “a tougher nut to crack”.

Najib, who was also finance minister, said this in denying that there was any impropriety in replacing Husni, who claimed that he was warned by his former boss to not interfere in 1MDB.
