KOTA KINABALU: A group of United Pasokmomogun Kadazandusun Murut Organisation (Upko) supreme council members have cry foul over the reappointment of 18 supreme council members by acting party president Datuk Wilfred Madius Tangau.

The group's spokesperson Arthur Sen, who is also Upko Youth Movement chief, claimed that it was not in accordance with Article 21 (iii) of the party's constitution, which states the reappointment of the council members could only be done by the party president after consulting with the elected supreme council members.
