Former Maldives president Maumoon Abdul Gayyoom has hit back at his successor, former president Mohamed Nasheed after he accused the former of tampering with votes.

Nasheed has always advocated for a parliamentary system of governance for the Maldives. Near to the end of Maumoon’s 30 year rule, in 2007, a referendum was taken to decide which governance system the country’s citizens preferred. The vote results indicated that the public preferred a presidential system.

Maumoon recently took to social media to state that a presidential governance system is most appropriate for the Maldives considering its political, social and economic conditions. Maumoon said the clear majority of Maldivian citizens chose the presidential system when the matter was put to vote.
