He said he will provide that opportunity in the first two years of his leadership and that he will introduce such democratic principles and values so that future leaders may be appointed according to the aspirations and expectations of the people.

He said his resolve has even grown stronger with the backing of the opposition parties. He said he is fully confident that Dr. Hassan Saeed , who was the first to back Anni, will actively participate in the second round of campaigning.

He called on DRP presidential candidate Maumoon Abdul Gayoom to respect the people’s wish. Anni said 30 years in power is enough. Anni expressed that he had no desire to be a barrier to the political aspirations of some politicians
