KOTA KINABALU: Parti Bersatu Sabah (PBS) will not accept Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi's suggestion to "lend" the Matunggong state seat in Kota Marudu to Umno. Deputy PBS president Datuk Seri Dr Maximus Ongkili (pic) said his party will "definitely" not accept the suggestion to lend the seat to Umno, as Matunggong has always been a traditional PBS seat. "We need to reach a mutual agreement to honour the Barisan seat allocation quota, and work together to improve the winnability of selected candidates," he wrote. He also said Jelani, will now assist Barisan candidates in securing victory for the Matunggong seat. Related story:Umno wants to recapture Matunggong seat for PBS
