KOTA KINABALU: While Sabah Umno and the state’s ruling party, Parti Warisan Sabah, are set to lock horns over the Kimanis Parlia-mentary seat, all eyes are watching to see if Datuk Seri Anifah Aman will contest as an independent.

The Election Commission (EC) has set Jan 18 for the by-election and most political parties in the state have no issues with the 14-day campaign period.
