President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih on Wednesday reappointed Ismail Habeeb as a member of the Elections Commission for a new term.
Parliament unanimously approved Habeeb to the five-member commission on March 6.
He was among 16 nominees forwarded for parliamentary approval by President Solih last month after interested candidates were invited to apply. The parliamentary committee that evaluated the nominees awarded Habeeb the highest marks and recommended his reappointment.
His previous five-year term was due to expire on Wednesday.
