Sabah's Perikatan Nasional coalition has nominated Ronald Kiandee to lead 41 candidates in the approaching state election, with Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia fielding 33 contenders, PAS five and Parti Gerakan three. Kiandee will compete for the Sugut constituency, marking his first attempt there since losing under the defunct Angkatan Keadilan Rakyat banner in 1990, when he fell to Parti Bersatu Sabah. The veteran politician previously served six terms as Beluran's parliamentary representative under Umno before switching to PPBM.

Coalition chairman Muhyiddin Yassin defended the candidate roster as sufficient for forming a majority government, noting that nominees underwent rigorous vetting without revealing corruption, tax, or traffic violations. PAS representative Aliakbar Gulasan will seek the Karambunai seat after serving as a nominated assemblyman when PN governed alongside Barisan Nasional through Gabungan Rakyat Sabah in 2020. Gerakan returns from its 2020 absence with three nominees across Luyang, Tanjung Papat and Elopura constituencies, while the Sindumin candidate remains unannounced.
