Opposition candidate's running mate, Faisal Naseem was given a warm welcome upon arriving at Maamigilli island of Alifu Dhaalu atoll on Monday morning.
While the opposition's campaign aims to visit all inhabited islands in the country, in order to ensure this candidate Ibrahim Mohamed Solih and Naseem have split up into two teams; Solih is currently on a tour of Baa atoll.
Naseeem, along with senior officials of the opposition arrived in Maamigilli in the morning and were welcomed by a number of supporters at Maamigilli Airport. From there they headed to Mandhoo island.
Officials that accompanied him on the trip include Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP)'s vice president Mohamed Shifaz, Maradhoo constituency MP Ibrahim Shareef, Adhaalath Party's MP for Makunudhoo constituency Anara Naeem and Adam Azim and Mohamed Maleeh Jamal from Jumhooree Party.
Naseem will head to nine islands during the two-day trip; Mandhoo, Fenfushi, Dhihdhoo and Dhigurah on Monday and Hangnaameedhoo, Omadhoo, Mahibadhoo, Kunburudhoo and Maamigilli on Tuesday.
While this is his first trip since the Elections Commission accepted him as Solih's running mate, his first official campaign trip was to southernmost Addu and Fuvahmulah cities. He was selected as the opposition running mate on July 13.
