PUTATAN: The recent claims that Parti Warisan Sabah (Warisan) members are crossing over to join Barisan Nasional are just cheap publicity triggered by the opposition out to gain votes in the upcoming Kimanis by-election.

Warisan candidate for the by-election Datuk Karim Bujang advised voters in the constituency not to believe the opportunists involved who often played up the issue solely for political gain.
