MDP Confident of Winning in First Round

President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih, the MDP's presidential candidate, said he expects to win the upcoming election in the first round without a run-off, citing strong campaign-trail support. A Baani Centre poll in August put him at 21%, seven points ahead of Dr Mohamed Muizzu, and at 51% when undecided and non-voting participants are accounted for.
