DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke will defend his Chennah seat in the upcoming Negeri Sembilan state polls, quelling rumours of his supposed plan to move to Penang.

Addressing a press conference this morning, he said the state DAP decided to defend all of its 11 incumbent seats and help allies in Pakatan Harapan secure at least nine others, which would enable them to form a simple majority in the state legislative assembly.
