KOTA KINABALU: Sabah Umno has identified four potential candidates for the Kinabatangan parliamentary and Lamag state seat by-elections, its chairman Datuk Jafry Ariffin said.

He did not discount the possibility of fielding Kinabatangan Umno youth chief Naim Kurniawan, the son of the late Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin whose death on Dec 5 will see by-elections for the two seats on Jan 24.
