KOTA KINABALU: Parti Bersatu Rakyat Sabah (PBRS) president Tan Sri Joseph Kurup has stepped aside to make way for his son and deputy Arthur Kurup to contest his Pensiangan parliamentary seat.
The newly unveiled Barisan Nasional candidate line-up Thursday (April 26), which retains most of the office bearers, would also see Sabah Chief Minister Tan Sri Musa Aman's son Yamani Hafez Musa going for the Sipitang parliamentary seat for the first time.
The list also sees incumbents defending their seats such as Sungai Sibuga (Musa), Tambunan (Tan Sri Joseph Pairin Kitingan), Kota Marudu (Datuk Seri Dr Maximus Ongkili), Kinabatangan (Datuk Seri Bung Mokhtar Radin), Kimanis (Datuk Seri Anifah Aman) and Tuaran (Datuk Seri Madius Tangau).
Meanwhile, suspended Sepanggar Umno division chief Datuk Seri Jumat Idris has been dropped from the line-up with Datuk Seri Abdul Rahman Dahlan contesting in his Sepanggar parliamentary seat.
Datuk Seri Dr Salleh Said Keruak will not be defending the Usukan state seat, but will contest in the Kota Belud parliament seat, which was held by Abdul Rahman.
State speaker Datuk Seri Syed Abas Syed Ali has been dropped from the Balung state seat and replaced by former Land and Survey Department director Datuk Osman Jamal
Parti Warisan Sabah president Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal's brother, who is the Lahad Datu representative, has also been retained to defend his state seat.
Newcomer Ceasar Mandela Malakun will be contesting the Penampang parliamentary seat, Datuk Francis Goh for the Kapayan state seat and Dr Joseph Lee will vie for the Kota Kinabalu parliamentary seat.
Musa announced the candidates for the 25 parliamentary and 60 state seats at the Umno headquarters here.
