KOTA KINABALU, Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin, the Sabah UMNO chief, has criticised Datuk Dr. Jeffrey Kitingan, the president of STAR, for attempting to portray himself as a hero within the struggling GRS coalition, a move he deems unsuccessful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bung expressed that Jeffrey’s recent remarks labelling other parties as traitors during the GRS Youth Launch event were inflammatory, lacking substance, and ultimately damaging to his own credibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As the chairman of Barisan Nasional (BN) Sabah, Bung asserted that BN has the right to contest and represent the aspirations of the people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He reminded that Jeffrey Kitingan was once a member of Barisan Nasional, highlighting that history should not be forgotten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Notably, Jeffrey had previously sought membership in UMNO, which was granted before his membership was revoked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bung lamented that Jeffrey hastily accuses others of treachery while he himself is regarded as the “greatest traitor” in Sabah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He pointed out that Jeffrey is notorious for his party-switching (Buhangkut) and betrayed his own brother during the 14th General Election due to his lust for power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bung advised Jeffrey to concentrate on more pressing issues within his own GRS party, such as the corruption scandal involving the Chief Minister of Sabah and GRS assembly members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He criticised the GRS slogan “Our House, We Take Care” as an insult to the people of Sabah, given that the integrity of their governance is compromised by corruption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He emphasised that the public is aware of the corruption scandal implicating nearly all cabinet members and officials within GRS, which appears to be a scheme to exploit and deceive the people of Sabah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bung questioned whether Jeffrey Kitingan realises that the GRS leaders involved in profit-sharing discussions and caught on video are indeed his own party members, not UMNO.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
