The Maldivian Democratic Party elected Hanimaadhoo MP Abdul Ghafoor Moosa as its interim chairperson in a unanimous vote at Monday night's national assembly session, with 65 of the 66 members present backing him. The vote followed the collapse of an earlier leadership process on 27 November, after which former Dhidhdhoo MP Abdulla Waheed withdrew his candidacy.
One outlet so far Only Maldives Republic has reported this among the sources we monitor. A gap in what we monitor, not proof that others did not report it.
According to Waheed, events on 27 November contradicted those commitments. During the National Assembly session that night, he secured 49 votes in a show-of-hands count. One vote was later withdrawn, leaving him with 48 — the minimum required from 95 eligible voters. Members linked to Solih, Shahid and the PG began to walk out during the recount, and the meeting collapsed before the result was formally declared.
