KOTA KINABALU: Kadazandusun Huguan Siou (paramount leader) Datuk Seri Joseph Pairin Kitingan may see a challenge to his Kadazandusun and Murut Cultural Association president post at its elections next month. 

Two incumbent deputies in the association – Datuk Wilfred Bumburing and Datuk Clarence Bongkos Malakun – have received enough nominations to challenge Pairin, who has been at the helm of the influential association since 1985.
