Tan Sri Musa Aman

KOTA KINABALU: Tan Sri Musa Haji Aman will appeal the decision of the High Court here to dismiss his suit against the Head of State
and Chief Minister Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal today.

“I thank the court, my family, my legal team and our loyal supporters for upholding and respecting Sabah’s Constitution.

“We are of course disappointed with today’s decision. However, this issue goes beyond whether I am Chief Minister or not.

“This is about the sanctity and proper interpretation of Sabah’s Constitution and the TYT’s powers to appoint and dismiss a Chief Minister.

“I am of the view that these issues have not been fully resolved today and I have instructed my lawyers to appeal today’s decision,” said Musa.

Musa had sought a declaration that he was the rightful Chief Minister.

The court also ordered Musa, who is Sungai Sibuga assemblyman to pay RM15,000 cost to TYT and another RM15,000 cost to Shafie.
