PNC refuses to disclose why Nazim was removed as Dhiggaru constituency president

The People's National Congress (PNC) has refused to disclose why Ahmed Nazim was removed as Dhiggaru constituency president. Nazim, former Deputy Speaker of Parliament, faced an impeachment motion signed by 73 PNC MPs accusing him of abusing his position, creating discord, and undermining Parliament's interests. He resigned as Deputy Speaker on May 31, 2026, and was removed as constituency president on June 5, 2026. PNC Chairperson Abdul Raheem Abdulla stated the party believed removing Nazim would be beneficial but did not provide specific reasons, only saying Nazim lost the leadership's confidence. Former President Mohamed Nasheed alleged the PNC is preparing to remove President Mohamed Muizzu with support of 23 MPs, which the PNC denied. Former President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih also claimed some PNC members are ready to leave the party.
