CONGRATULATIONS, Mereseini Rakuita: She jumped and joined FFP, got elected to Parliament under 2013 Constitution, and now elected Principal Strategic Lead – Pacific Women by the Pacific Community. COUPS PAY

18/3/2022

 

She had entered Parliament in 2014 under the rotten d'Hondt Electoral System with a meagre 1,167 VOTES, rising to become Cabinet Minister. In 2013, she was Aiyaz Khaiyum's right-hand woman (one of the many enablers towards dictatorship), as the Registrar of Political Parties, prompting Professor Yash Ghai to state the following in his 'Notes on Fiji's Political Parties Decree':
'It is introduced by an unelected regime to establish rules for the formation, regulation, and dissolution of political parties.'
She had not intimated that she will run and join FFP as a candidate. Sadly, like many before her, her departure from Government has been portrayed as standing up for i-Taukei on the Land Bill 17. She had joined FFP in the full knowledge that her political leader and coupist had dismantled the Great Council of Chiefs and taken over the i-Taukei Land Trust Board as chairman. She became Lands Minister before moving to Women's Ministry. It acted as a springboard for the current new position.

SPC Director General Dr Stuart Minchin says that Rakuita will be taking on the new role from the 4th of April, bringing with her a wealth of experience leading national and regional efforts for gender equality.

Minchin says as the Principal Strategic Lead, Rakuita will be a member of SPC’s Senior Leadership Team and work across the organization, in collaboration with the Executive Office and Human Rights and Social Development Division.

The Principal Strategic Lead will champion gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls, ensuring these tenets are central to SPC’s work, to bring about the transformational changes required to improve the status of women and girls in the Pacific region. Source: FijiVillage News
