PBRS’s Ranau candidate doesn’t have Sabah BNrasmi's blessing, says Bung MyKinabatangan
Kota Kinabalu: . Sabah BN chief Bung Moktar Radin said the coalition’s state chapter did not give PBRS the greenlight to contest in any other seat than the one allotted to it – Pensiangan. However, Ranau PBRS leader Ewon Ebin had filed nomination papers to contest the parliamentary seat, which was given to GRS under its electoral pact with Sabah BN.Bung Moktar said Sabah BN had asked PBRS to stand down and withdraw from contesting the seat.
GRS picked Jonathan Yasin, who won the Ranau seat on a PKR ticket in 2018, to defend the seat. Yasin had defeated Ebin, who had contested on a BN-Upko ticket, in 2018. Yasin defected to Bersatu in 2020. On the absence of a pledge to appoint deputy prime ministers from Sabah and Sarawak in BN’s manifesto, Bung said this would be included in Sabah BN’s election manifesto which would be launched by the end of the week.
