Datuk John Ghani has quit the party, citing unhappiness over its president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s timing in appointing a new state chief. Read more:

Datuk John Ghani, 72, who has been with PKR since 2004, said while the appointment was the president’s call, he was concerned it was made when the 15th general election could be called at any time.

"She is very loyal and is also a sitting Tawau MP and Api-Api assemblyman - how can you drop her at a time like this?" he told reporters in a press conference here on Friday ."It’s not that you can’t change the leader and I’m not questioning the choice - that is the President’s prerogative, but this is just the wrong timing because GE15 is just around the corner ... our focus should be on GE15," he added.

One faction sided with Liew, he said, and the other supported his"good friend" Sangkar and his nephew Raymond Ahuar, who is the Pensiangan division leader as well as former Sabah PKR youth chief. Anwar had announced last Saturday that Sangkar would be the Sabah PKR state leadership council chairman for the 2022-2025 period, replacing Liew who has held the post since October 2016.
