KOTA KINABALU: Two Upko assemblymen who were aligned to Tan Sri Musa Aman have joined their party members in supporting Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal, barely 24 hours after he was sworn in as chief minister.

The two had kept faith with Barisan Nasional and Musa, even though their own party (Upko) decided to leave the coalition on Thursday.
