KDM’s sole assemblyman to keep backing Hajiji govt, says Armizan

KDM's sole assemblyman, Rusdin Riman, of Paginatan, has announced his party's intention to continue backing the Sabah government despite the party's decision to withdraw its support from the Hajiji Noor-led administration. In a Facebook post, GRS secretary-general Armizan Mohd Ali quoted Rusdin as stating his commitment to serving his constituents and ensuring the stability of the state government for its ongoing development agenda.

This decision comes after KDM's acting president, Priscella Peter, made a similar announcement earlier today, emphasizing the party's direction and its grassroots supporters. The withdrawal of support comes a week after Warisan president Shafie Apdal hinted at potential pacts with KDM and Parti Solidariti Tanah Airku for the 16th general election.

Notably, KDM contested the November 2025 state election alone and only secured the Paginatan seat. The party then allied itself with the GRS administration and currently holds one parliamentary seat, Kota Marudu, which was won by Wetrom Bahanda in the 2022 general election.
