UMNO ready to contest Kimanis if by-election declared

Umno deputy president Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan said Sabah Umno would begin immediate preparation of its machinery for Kimanis, which was an Umno seat held by Datuk Seri Anifah Aman, who defected to become an independent after the May 2018 general election.

He advised Sabah Umno leaders to pick a candidate without any baggage and who was acceptable to the people. He said he had asked Sabah Umno chief Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin and other leaders, including Rahman, to work with the other opposition parties. He said with Sabah Umno set to get autonomy, the party would further strengthen in Sabah and play a pivotal role in giving Barisan Nasional a chance to win back the federal government.
