Abdullah Kamaludeen

Abdullah Kamaludeen, is a Maldivian politician who served as the minister of home affairs from 2007 to 2008. He currently serves as the chief executive officer of the Maumoon Foundation since 2026.

Career Kamaludeen served in many ministerial positions during the presidency of Maumoon Abdul Gayoom for 15 years. He served as the minister of home affairs from 2007 until Gayoom's presidency was over in November 2008. In 2008, President Gayoom awarded Kamaludeen the Order of Izzuddin. Kamaludeen was one of the members of the Dhivehi Rayyithunge Party (DRP), before he left the party along with Gayoom and was one of the founding members of the Progressive Party of Maldives (PPM).

In 2021, Kamaludeen left MRM to create his own party. He released a statement saying that "a new party is needed to prioritize Islam, maintain the sovereignty of the nation, empower citizens, and strengthen community wellness". He revealed the party's name to be "National Solidarity Party" and submitted it to the Elections Commission (EC). The EC rejected it and nulled his request as it still listed him as a member of the MRM. The MRM filed a request to the EC to remove Kamaludeen from the party register. Kamaludeen later resubmitted his application and later received the go-ahead to form the party.

In January 2026, Gayoom appointed Kamaludeen as the chief executive officer of the Maumoon Foundation.
