The Adhaalath Party’s consultative council has approved joining the PNC as a coalition partner in the upcoming 2028 presidential election and campaigning in support of its presidential candidate, President Dr Mohamed Muizzu.
The Adhaalath Party made the decision at a consultative council meeting held tonight to consider the PNC’s invitation to form an alliance and work with President Muizzu and the PNC for the remainder of the current term and in the upcoming presidential election. In extending the invitation, the PNC noted that cooperation and participation from political parties were needed to further strengthen the work being undertaken under President Muizzu’s administration to bolster religious affairs, defend the country’s sovereignty and independence, and improve the economy.
In a press release issued tonight, the Adhaalath Party said it had decided to accept the PNC’s invitation because its founding purpose was to safeguard Islam, Maldivian national identity, and the country’s independence and sovereignty, and to advance and develop the nation based on Islamic beliefs and principles. It also said it believed working together to maintain political stability and strengthen national unity was in the country’s best interests.
The consultative council approved three resolutions:
Accept the invitation from PNC president, President Muizzu, and work as a partner in the government for the remainder of the current term
Form a coalition with the PNC and campaign in support of President Muizzu in the 2028 presidential election
Authorise the Adhaalath Party’s president to sign a coalition agreement with the PNC after determining the terms and arrangements for participation in the coalition and drawing up an agreement
