Former President Mohamed Waheed has stated that there is no opposition candidate in the upcoming presidential elections, adding that PNC's presidential candidate Mohamed Muizzu is an agent of ruling MDP.

Speaking to the people of B. Goidhoo this afternoon to campaign for Jumhooree Party presidential candidate Qasim Ibrahim, President Waheed said that there was no reason to vote for President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih. He added that Muizzu is competing from a smaller party, while main opposition PPM did not have a candidate in the elections.

President Waheed said that there is no candidate to vote in this election except Qasim and no matter how many names are on the ballot paper, there is no one to vote except Qasim.

President Waheed joined Jumhooree Party after leaving PPM when the candidacy application window for the Presidential Election expired. Since then President Waheed has been very critical of PPM and PNC.
