KOTA KINABALU: Out of the 16 assemblymen who switched their allegiance to former Sabah chief minister Tan Sri Musa Aman and triggered the dissolution of the Sabah state assembly in late July, only five have been fielded by political parties.

The four politicians are Datuk James Ratib, Datuk Limus Jury, Datuk Abidin Madingkir and Datuk Muis Picho who will be defending their seats in Sugut, Kuala Penyu, Paginatan and Sebatik respectively.
