First Lady Fathimath Ibrahim has become the first member of the Presidential Elections; Volunteer Programme. The membership card was handed over to First Lady Fathimath Ibrahim by the Representative of President Yameen's Campaign Office, Adil Ismail.
The Presidential Elections’ Volunteer Programme was launched at a special rally held by the ruling party at Laamu atoll on Friday.
