KOTA BARU: Incumbent Ketereh MP Tan Sri Annuar Musa, who was dropped from the Barisan Nasional (BN) list of candidates for the 15th General Election (GE15), admitted that he had received but rejected offers from other parties, including Perikatan Nasional (PN), to defend his seat on their ticket.

Annuar, who is also Ketereh Umno chief, said he also knew that Perikatan candidate Maj Gen (Rtd) Datuk Khlir Mohd Nor had yet to receive the official appointment letter despite having been announced as a candidate for the seat.
