Kota Kinabalu: Parti Warisan refuted claims that it sought to “buy” or influence newly elected assemblymen to support the party in establishing the state government after the recent 17th Sabah Election.
Warisan President Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal said the party’s commitment has always been rooted in integrity, and leadership must be earned through the trust of the people.
“Your trust is greatly appreciated, and we accept that responsibility with humility and honour. Warisan respects the people’s mandate and the democratic process that underpins our state administration.
“We will continue to fulfil our entrusted responsibilities with dignity, consistency and unwavering commitment to serve Sabah,” he said in a statement.
Shafie was commenting on allegations by a news portal that Warisan attempted to persuade state assemblymen to back the party in forming a political coalition to govern Sabah.
