Opposition figure Didi has stated that President Mohamed Muizzu is not an Islamic leader and that his administration operates on a secular basis.

The remarks form part of ongoing political criticism of the government's policies and public positioning. Didi and other critics have questioned the consistency of the administration's approach to religious affairs and social governance.

The statement adds to a series of sharp exchanges between the opposition and the ruling People's National Congress over the character and direction of the current government. Supporters of the president have previously defended his record on social and religious matters.

No formal response from the President's Office to the specific characterisation has been highlighted in recent reporting.

The comments reflect broader debates about the role of religion in public policy under the Muizzu administration.
