You can't have a Sabah govt if the CM has no party, says Shafie


KOTA KINABALU: A state government cannot be formed in Sabah if its chief minister does not belong to any political party, says Parti Warisan.

Its president Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal (pic) said this is in accordance with the state constitution, and having the numbers to form the government does not matter if the person seeking to helm it is without a party.
