Former Member of Parliament (MP) Ahmed Easa has urged Elections Commission's (EC) President Ahmed Shareef to stop altering activities leading up to the upcoming Presidential Election according to President Yameen Abdul Gayyoom's demands.
While speaking at RaajjeTV's 'Fala Surukhee' Program, Easa accused President Yameen of failing to follow laws and regulations in the political sphere. He also highlighted President Yameen's efforts to eradicate the opposing candidates and added that EC is currently working on doing so.
'We will win this elections even if we have to get the current government and President to bend over. We will beat the government with the ballot papers if we must do so to win. It is very clear', said former MP Easa.
Furthermore, the former parliament member said that the opposition will force the government to hold the upcoming Presidential Election if it comes to that and assured that they will secure MDP's candidacy. Easa also said that they won't let EC interfere with the elections held for the citizens of Maldives to determine their president.
