Bainimarama tells NZ protestors: "You are bunch of devils and losers"

9/8/2014

GUARDED: Bainimarama gets a barrage of abuse while flanked by bodyguards after today's Fiji First rally.

Mr Bainimarama is in New Zealand for three days campaigning for next month's Fijian election.

He spoke to a crowd of about 300 on Saturday afternoon in Auckland. Another 100 people were turned away because the venue had reached capacity.

Some protesters were removed from the venue before Mr Bainimarama's arrival but others managed to get into the meeting and heckle. Reacting to the taunts, Mr Bainimarama told the crowd he did not worry about the devils, as they were a bunch of losers.

The politician - who led a military coup in 2006 - is campaigning for support for his Fiji First party.

Earlier, a clash broke out between supporters and opponents of Mr Bainimarama outside the building. Mr Bainimarama's opponents yelled insults about the coup leader, calling him a dictator, but his supporters shouted back that he was a good man.

About 20 protesters were escorted off the grounds by security guards.

Bainimarama told the lady who asked him if he formed the Govt, what message he has for those protestors as to will his govt show equality to them who oppose him now regarding human rights abuse?

He replied he will close his eyes and ears... thus meaning he will continue to support human rights abuse.

I don't know if the anti- Bainimarama protesters in Auckland are a "bunch of devils and losers". I don't think they are. What I do know for sure is that Frank Bainimarama is the THUG RULER of Fiji who wants to recast himself as a much loved democratic leader. A dictatorial ruler will always remain a dictatorial ruler. The democracy game is just a convenient guise for him to remain in power and gain international acceptance - which is bound to happen once he wins the elections. That's how international politics is played out on the world stage. That's how small time tinpot toady dictators become full fledged megalomaniacs who rule their people by fear and terror.

Under the name of democracy

Why voting for Frank will mean no more coups?

Is it that he has paid military council members 3-4 folds to keep him in power after he loses the election?

So to stop another coup means one should vote for him as he has promised boys more money if they do another coup to put him back as minority govt maybe!!!

Victor i like to than you/fijileak.
I asked for a debate with Bai but he said know through his mouth piece in NZ Sanjesh Of Radio Tarana.
I told the security guard its was open public meeting.
Bai /Tarana used security to stop us but we spread our views via NZ Media.
We won FFP 1000 VS 40 FDFM/SODELPA Suppoerters.
Frank ran away like a coward again.

It is in the nature of democracy to have opposition.

There is a huge (silent) majority of Fiji people – who are NOT devils and Losers but who genuinely despise what Bainimarama’s Dictatorship has stood for (and was) in the last eight years in Fiji;-

*Anti-democracy / Dictatorship – ruling by devious Decrees of Disgrace for (8 long years); Human Rights Abuse, harassment and torture of Citizens;
*‘Purported’ Abrogation of the Peoples’ 1997 Constitution - as against the benchmark legal authority of ‘no mere man or even a mighty president can abrogate the Constitution”.
*Imposition of an illegal 2013 Constitution – which does “not represent the ‘will’ of the people of Fiji - and has been brought about by people who lacked legitimacy themselves - and had no mandate to do so either by vote and/or a referendum”.. [Fiji First Party 5/10/13 YG Subs];
*Anti i taukei interests – [generally being culturally insensitive} suppression of indigenous rights and customary institutions; and hence creating racial his-harmony between the dispossessed and others; The ‘imposed’ Equal-citizenry is seen by the i-taukei as Reverse Racism;
*Suppression of Media and Free Speech and Suppression of Freedom of Association and anti Trade Union Movement; Fiji was under the “State of Emergency’ (SOE) for 3 long years 09 -11;
*Selling Off of our national assets; (Bainimarama / Aiyaz have no mandate to do so);
*INDEBTEDEDNESS beyond sustainability to CHINA – Borrowing at unsustainable rates and for
*General CHORI and Corruption – Where is the AUDITOR GENERAL’s REPORT; Dirty Chinese Deals;
*And now ‘electioneering’ – Unfair Advantages; ignoring ‘Conflicts of Interests’ and Fiji First Name Chori and other Vote-Buying racket.

DEVIL or otherwise the silent majority will defeat Bainimarama at this Elections. Majority Rules.

Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
