MDP President Mohamed Munawar has said that it is not late at all to choose a Presidential Candidate to represent MDP.
He made the statement to Velidhoo news speaking on the recent comments carried on media that MDP’s failure to decide on the party’s presidential candidate is affecting the party’s powerful image and its strength.
“It is not late at all; we are going forward according to party policies; what is important to MDP is its policies instead of promoting one person; I believe that it is more important to declare party policies” said MDP president.
Dr. Munawar further said that the hearing of the court case of KD Ahmed Manik, Commissioner of Elections started too late and if the Maldives is going to adopt presidential system of government then trial of KD Ahmed Manik is pointless.
“We will decide on party presidential candidate after constitutional reform is completed and when the issues related to referendum on system of government is solved” said Dr. Munawar.
Dr. Munawar told Velidhoo news that Dr. Hassan Saeed can join MDP and be a presidential contender.
Asked if the presidential system will affect party regulations, Dr. Munawar said regulations governing the party are not based on a particular system however changes will have made to MDP structure reflect the ongoing constitutional reforms.
