Ex-President Yameen Unveils People’s National Front as His New Party

Former President Abdulla Yameen announced the formation of a new political party, the People's National Front (PNF), amid disputes with the Progressive Party of Maldives (PPM). Mohamed Maleeh Jamal unveiled the party name, logo, and violet color, which may face approval issues with the Elections Commission (EC) due to a color conflict. Yameen resigned from PPM after the owner of PPM's office building (a Yameen supporter) demanded the party vacate. Jameel (Dr Mohamed Jameel Ahmed) announced Yameen's resignation, citing a rift with PPM leadership. Yameen's son Zein Abdulla Yameen was designated as the founder, as EC rules allow only one founder. Initially eight candidates were nominated. Jameel accused PPM leadership of sidelining Yameen and rejecting cooperation. Yameen intends to remain politically active without interfering with President Muizzu's administration.
