Manzoor Nadir Returns as Speaker of the National Assembly
Manzoor Nadir returns as Speaker of the National Assembly, while Dr. Vishwa Mahadeo will serve as his Deputy.
Both Nadir and Mahadeo were extracted from the People’s Progressive Party’s (PPP) List of Candidates for the September 1 election.
There was no challenge to the post of Speaker; however, Opposition Member of Parliament Tabitha Sarabo-Halley was nominated but did not secure sufficient votes.
