President Mohamed Nasheed has appointed ‘Sarangu’ Adam Manik as Special Envoy of the President on Infrastructure Development, following Manik’s resignation as Mayor of Male’ City Council yesterday.
Manik told Haveeru yesterday that he had decided to resign because of “pressures from within the council”.
“Some of the council members had personal expectations which made it difficult for me to perform my duties,” he said.
A no-confidence motion against Manik put forward by council members last week was revoked, after it was withdrawn by Councillor Mohamed Falah.
