Naifaru MP and Vice President of PPM Ahmed Shiyam has stated that PPM will become the next ruling party, following MDP’s term as the ruling party.

Speaking on a current affairs program on VTV tonight, Shiyam said that PPM is the biggest and most successful political party in the Maldives – hence he believes that the party will be the one to become the ruling party after MDP’s exit after the current term.

He added that he sees a really bright future for the party, and that was constantly working towards that common goal.

Shiyam said that works were being carried out to strengthen the party further, but he revealed that there is an uneasy feeling since they lost three consecutive elections.

Shiyam has been re-elected to the Naifaru constituency under PPM for the 19th Parliament.
