Former President Mohamed Nasheed has called for new leadership within the Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) following defeat in what he described as an “unfair” but accepted parliamentary election.
“I request new people to come and run the party,” Nasheed told the media today.
The party’s figurehead said he will continue to serve the party in the future and hopes that members of the party would make clear his role.
“I want new people to come forward to run the party. But I will not go away from the party, I will always remain in doing party work,” he added.
