Maldivians have been involved in the incidents wherein the Maldives lost its independence. The same thing is happening today. Foreign groups are providing funds to MDP to introduce other religions to our country. Today, we should be ashamed if we lose our religion. So we have to ask, how can we proceed in the best interest of the nation? I urge everyone who voted for Jumhooree Coalition, to vote for PPM presidential candidate Abdulla Yameen.

The people of the Maldives have said no to Nasheed. But we didn’t win because we were divided. But now we have united. God willing, just like the people of Maldives showed last Saturday that Nasheed cannot return to power, I urge you to vote similarly this Saturday as well.
