President Dr Mohamed Muizzu met with the B. Fehendhoo Island Council, the Women’s Development Committee (WDC), and heads of local institutions today to address the island’s pressing development needs. The meeting was held at Fehendhoo School.
During the discussions, council members highlighted several urgent issues, including the island’s erosion problem, the need to level the futsal court, the construction of a modern-standard volleyball court, and the allocation of land. They also noted that the island’s bridge had tilted to one side, emphasising the need for an immediate solution. In addition, the council requested that the water and sewerage works be expedited.
Other concerns included the need for a new mosque and the challenges posed by having only one imam on the island.
The President assured that he would look into the matters raised and, through Cabinet Ministers and senior officials from State-Owned Enterprises present at the meeting, provided updates on ongoing projects for the island.
