Chief secretary to the government Mohd Sidek Hassan said that the king has consented to the swearing-in of Najib, which will be held in Istana Negara at 10am.
But Rocky has the latest 'scoop'.
@ 7:26 PM, he blogged 'A little early'. I reproduce the post verbatim:
Ooops! Bernama issued this story to the papers a while ago. The papers, in turn, very efficiently sent out SMS alerts to their subscribers:
1/4 Agong has consented to swearing-in ceremony of Najib as Prime Minister at 10am Friday at Istana Negara: Chief Secretary to Govt Mohd Sidek/STAR [received 18:47]
NST 01/04: King has given consent to swear in Najib as new Prime Minister on Friday 10am, at Istana Negara, says Chief Secretary to Government [18:42]
BH 01/04:Yang di-Pertuan Agong berkenan istiadat angkat sumpah jawatan Najib sebagai PM pada Jumaat ini, jam 10 pagi di Istana Negara: KSN [18:28]
Then, a few minutes ago, the national news agency sent this bulletin to all its subscribers:
[NEWS] NOTE TO EDITORS: APRIL 1
Please ignore item slugged "Agong-Najib" as the office of the Chief Secretary of the Government has said that it had issued the statement prematurely.-- BERNAMA
Oh, dear.
