Sabah polls: Up to Bung to decide if Shahelmey gets to defend Tanjung Keramat seat, says Zahid


KOTA KINABALU: Sabah’s Deputy Chief Minister III Datuk Shahelmey Yahya’s chances of getting to defend his Tanjung Keramat seat under the Barisan Nasional banner will be decided by Sabah Umno chief Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin, says Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.

The Umno president said it was up to Bung to make the decision whether to re-field Shahelmey who has been suspended for defying the state Umno’s decision to withdraw support for the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) state government led by Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor in 2023.
