No sitting president can treat former Heads of State as disposable without shattering public and institutional confidence. Last night’s events reveal a dangerous breakdown in command and control… Last night, after jointly demanding the restoration of press freedom and constitutional order in the #Maldives, former Presidents @MohamedNasheed, @prz_ymn, and @ibusolih — two of whom survived assassination attempts — emerged into total chaos with zero crowd management by police. Forced into a volatile protest confronting Special Operations forces, repeated urgent pleas from their MNDF security details for safe passage to vehicles were ignored. Police pushed the former presidents and their teams roughly with shields through the crowd, reportedly causing minor injury to one. This reckless endangerment of former Heads of State is a grave constitutional violation that cannot go unanswered. Placing leaders who have already survived assassinations in such foreseeable danger is unforgivable. President @MMuizzu bears direct responsibility, driven by incompetence, ego, and abuse of power. Reappointing disgraced officer Ahmed Mohamed (“Two Four”) as Police Commissioner, despite prior graft allegations, exemplifies this failure. Bootlicker Minister Ali Ihusaan @min_mohst who ignores the law in blind loyalty, along with the on-ground commander and Commissioner Ahmed Mohamed, must face immediate accountability. An independent investigation is non-negotiable. This assault on democracy will not stand. @hrw @amnesty @CPJAsia @RSF_en @UNHumanRights @IFJGlobal @StateDept @UKinMaldives @EUinMaldives @TransparencyInt #RuleOfLaw #PressFreedom #Maldives

I think brain dead, retarded morons like you can STFU first. 1. ~18000 MDP members decided NOT to vote yesterday. 2. ONLY ~30,000 people decided to vote. 3. EVEN OUT OF THAT about 20k people voted for NASHEED CULT. (Demok-rats membership) 4. Maldives has about 250,000 voters & an Internal vote like this is about 10% of national scale. Ehen vyma anga madu koffa size ga hurey.

Hathu & Alex needs to stafup. 70% said No to your gang. Now either work with us as MDPians or stay away!

Calling Raees Nasheed a “cult leader” is a lazy substitute for political analysis. The fact that people continue to support him after decades in public life does not prove a cult, it proves that he has built a political legacy that still resonates with many Maldivians. The real question is not whether some voters still support Raees Nasheed, but whether his ideas, achievements, and vision remain relevant. Dismissing thousands of citizens as cult followers simply because they disagree with you reflects a very small understanding of how democracy works. In every democracy, influential leaders retain loyal supporters long after their political peak. That’s called political influence, not a cult. Reducing complex political preferences to “cult followers” says more about the critic’s inability to understand different viewpoints than it does about Raees Nasheed or his supporters.

But it’s what the majority of @MDPSecretariat members want. So why are you still spreading hate?

We now know why, even after 20 YEARS of democracy, we are a BROKE, CORRUPTION-SOAKED, DEBT RIDDEN 3rd world nation pretending to function under justice & accountability. The largest democratic institution in Maldives (MDP) has just elected the very man & his cult who split MDP, endorsed candidates against MDP, and worked to weaken the party from within as its chairperson.. .. all because one fine evening he pretended that his speaking slot at an event was taken away. dhen vaa eychey ves balamaa
