KOTA KINABALU, Nov 15 (Bernama) -- Parti Gagasan Rakyat Sabah (PGRS) has warned that any party member who contests as an independent candidate in the 17th Sabah state election will be immediately expelled.
Its secretary-general, Datuk Mohammad Razali Razi, said contesting under an independent ticket goes against the party’s stance and decisions as a component of Gabungan Rakyat Sabah (GRS).
“PGRS stresses that any individual who decides to contest as an independent candidate has no connection with the party or any of its leaders, even if they are a PGRS member.
“Accordingly, the party has decided to immediately expel any member who violates this directive,” he said in a statement today.
Mohammad Razali urged all party supporters and machinery to strengthen unity and remain fully focused on facing the state election.
“We must ensure the victory of GRS candidates for the sake of the future and interests of the people of Sabah,” he said.
Today is nomination day, while polling has been set for Nov 29 and early voting on Nov 25.
