Hi, I'm Viyu. Ask me about the stories collected here. I answer only from them, with numbered links to the outlets that published them, and I say so when they do not cover it.
The Elections Commission officially registered the People's National Front (PNF), led by interim leader Zeine Abdulla Yameen, with interim Secretary-General Mohamed Maleeh Jamal announcing the registration on X. The party's 9 April inaugural congress at Ghiyasuddin International School was obstructed by riot police, and the congress was later held at Raalhugandu in eastern Malé; the party will have no representation in the incoming 20th parliament.
