President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih has assured development for Addu City and as a result the majority of the city’s residents is behind him, said Ibrahim Shareef (Addu Shareef), MP from Maradoo Constituency, Addu City on Saturday.

Speaking at the inauguration of land reclamation project in Addu, Shareef said that President Solih has made the Addu dream of development a reality. According to Shareef previous governments have not delivered on their pledges to Addu City. However, according to Shareef, residents of the city now believe that the present government’s development program which is underway will bear fruits.

“It’s a day of joy for Addu. Reception of President Solih by Addu residents is unmatched. Never before in the history of this country, such a reception has happened. President Solih has made Addu’s fifty-year old dream come true”, said Shareef.

Shareef also said that developing Addu has always been President Solih’s vision and that the latter’s words and actions match. These; Shareef, said have made Solih the most popular president among Addu residents.

Shareef predicted that President Solih will win the presidential elections on September 9 with 75 percent of all votes cast in Addu. He said that the speed of development in Addu City has lured many active members of other political parties into the fold of ruling MDP.
