KOTA KINABALU: Former Pintasan assemblyman Datuk Fairuz Renddan says he will consult his supporters and party machinery before deciding whether to contest as an independent after he was not named as the Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS) candidate for the seat.

Fairuz, who is also Parti Gagasan Rakyat Sabah youth wing chief, said he remained focused on serving the people and supporting GRS' campaign despite being dropped as a candidate.
