The People’s National Congress Reform/A Partnership for National Unity (PNCR/APNU) coalition has issued a forceful call for both the President and Vice President of our nation to step down from office immediately, citing newly resurfaced allegations concerning a farm operation linked to the Head of State. The coalition articulated this position during a press conference held on July 17, 2026, where it laid out a detailed case built upon previous investigative work conducted more than a decade ago.
The main thrust of the coalition’s argument centres on what it describes as deeply troubling disclosures regarding agricultural land at Long Creek, which the PNCR/APNU coalition claims was operated by the current President, Mohamed Irfaan Ali. According to the coalition, these matters are not fresh discoveries but rather old concerns that were examined by the State Asset Recovery Unit during the period after 2015. The PNCR/APNU coalition maintains that investigators at that time uncovered significant irregularities that warranted serious consequences, yet were ultimately left unpursued.
The coalition has placed on record that during the earlier investigation, officials established several critical facts that raised red flags about the legitimacy of the land arrangement. The PNCR/APNU coalition states that the territory in question was formally leased to an individual named “Mohammed Ali,” but the identification documentation presented in support of that lease did not belong to the current President himself. Instead, the coalition alleges, the national identification card produced was that of the President’s father — a detail the PNCR/APNU coalition presents as central to its concerns about potential misrepresentation.
