KOTA KINABALU: Parti Warisan Sabah is expected to support for Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad following a dramatic overnight decision by Pakatan Harapan to back the Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) chairman as premier.
Amid speculations on Friday that Warisan, led by Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal , was moving to back Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, party sources on Saturday maintained that the party had always supported Dr Mahathir for the position."If one only listens to Shafie, he has been saying that they support Dr Mahathir, ” said the political source.
However, the Warisan source denied that Warisan at anytime communicated or gave in writing its support for Muhyiddin. Stressing that Warisan and Shafie had consistently supported the Dr Mahathir, the source said the party was fully aware of its role for the nation.
