Now that Putrajaya has finally promised to have the emergency ordinances (EO) annulled through Parliament, former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak called for the motion on the annulment to be prioritised.

"Don't make it the last thing on the agenda. Allow it to be the first motion," Najib, who is the Pekan MP, posted on his Facebook today.

Earlier today, Putrajaya de-escalated tensions with Istana Negara by vowing to ensure the EO are annulled through Parliament during the September sitting.
