The seats are Api-Api, Sindumin, Merotai, Melalap, Karamunting, Inanam, Tulid, Gum-Gum, Segama and Petagas.

Pakatan Harapan chairman and PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said the coalition would contest about 23 seats – not with the intention of forming the next Sabah government but to work closely with Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) and Barisan Nasional to have stronger representation in the federal government.
