A few hours after Lulzim Basha’s concession speech in which he announced immediate preparations for PD leadership elections, PD deputy Eduard Selami announced his candidature for the leadership of the party.
Demokrate te nderuar,
me ndjenje pergjegjesie dhe synim per t’i rikthyer se bashku PD, lavdine e merituar, shpall kandidaturen per Kryetar!— Eduard Selami (@SelamiEduard) June 27, 2017
Selami is a former chairman of the Democratic Party, from 1992 to 1995.
He had been one of the three former deputies who spoke out against Basha during the electoral campaign, calling for his resignation after he wasn’t included on the candidate list for the June 25 elections.
