Sabah PKR to defend Inanam, Api-Api seats in state election

Sabah PKR will defend the Inanam and Api-Api seats in the upcoming 17th state election, said party state leadership council chairperson Mustapha Sakmud.

He acknowledged that many parties are eyeing the two state seats but affirmed that Sabah PKR will stand firm in defending them.

“We will ensure that there will be more, we do not want just two, there will be additional seats,” he said, but declined to disclose the number of additional seats and the specific constituencies desired.

Mustapha (above), who is also the deputy higher education minister, said this at a press conference held ahead of Sabah PKR’s “Himpunan Perdana Rakyat” programme on Aug 4, in Kota Kinabalu yesterday.

On speculation that he will contest in the upcoming state election, the Sepanggar MP said he will consider it and make an announcement when the time comes.

The 16th state election was held in September 2020 while the next election is to be held next year.
