Mohamed Nasheed(@MohamedNasheed):The MDP’s expectation was to bring a system that separates powers and makes the government accountable. The 2008 Constitution failed to deliver that outcome. An elected President can easily bribe and influence the electorate to secure a super-majority in Parliament. That allows the President to manipulate the judiciary and independent institutions. We must pursue a ‘reset’ again. The MDP will deliver the change that the people deserve.
