Leader of the opposition coalition partner People’s Alliance (PA), MP Abdulla Yameen, has joined former President Maumoon Abdul Gayoom on the campaign trail, reports Haveeru.
Yameen, who is the former President’s half-brother, travelled to his own constituency of Mulaku and a rally in Laamu Atoll to help build support for DRP candidates ahead of the local council election on Saturday, Haveeru reported.
DRP Deputy Leader Ilham Ahmed told Haveeru that Yameen joined the Gayoom’s campaign team on its request, because “as our coalition partner, PA has helped us in passing several matters and bills through the Parliament. We get the assistance of PA very much and we believe that it should be the case in the campaign.”
