For Your Diary: Fijileaks will not be updated between Sunday-Tuesday!

Regime and DPP have hired Hong Kong lawyer for $275,000 to prosecute Mosese Bulitavo, Jagath Karunaratne, Eroni Takape, Usaia Koroi and Waisale Daganayasi for allegedly spraying anti-government graffiti in various locations - the graffiti case is coming up soon!
Will Sodelpa MP Bulitavo turn STATE WITNESS? If so, the whole case should be DISMISSED, for according to Fijileaks Police sources he CRACKED under interrogation and had accused others with HIM! In fact, he himself went to Police with his laptop and USB's and handed over everything he claimed he had on other suspects! TRAITOR? His application for variation of his bail is listed to be heard at the end of the month - he was planning to travel to Canada for a conference but Fijileaks understands Sodelpa MP Bill Gavoka has been slated to replace him at the conference. Bulitavo is one of the most anti-Indo-Fijian Sodelpa MPs in Parliament! Who is "Gauna Vinaka" who has been accusing Ro Kepa and others, alleging financial impropriety at the Opposition Office?

Who is this upstart Bulitavu anyway? What has he done for Fiji that warrants him this much attention? Is all the free fairytales in the SunK getting to his head?

If his maiden speech & other interventions in Parliament are anything to go by, he's definitely a one-termer.

Kudos to his gumption for the graffitti but its hardly a fitting look for a Member of Parliament.

Only a few weeks ago this dude was the rumoured MP having a fling with a medic as the SunK heralded daily. This week he has the SunK's heri with Radrodro.. always a signal of untoward machinations if the SunK makes it their business to raise your profile so soon after drop-kicking it to the kerb in the first place.

SODELPA seems to have chosen a bunch of lowlifes who are doing more harm than good for the party. To add credibility to the party and to give them any chance of toppling the current regime in the next election, people like Naiqama/nawaikula/bulitavu and likeminded need to be thrown out of the party. Naiqama can't control his foul mouth and the rest are behaving worst than spoilt kids. Change is imminent otherwise Kaiyum will run circles around SODELPA instability and ruin them for good like FLP.

Couldn't agree more with your posting Johnny. I cant fathom why Naiqama is so fixated with Tikoitoga's resignation from the Army to pursue a diplomatic posting. Surely there must be more important bread and butter issues for Naiqama's faction to pursue?

Tikoitoga has been in the Army since 1981 i.e. 24 years service in the same institution. He himself said he needed a change. The other good thing about his move is that it allows a reshuffle of senior officers, unlike Bainimarama who hogged the Commander RFMF position for more than 17 years thus denying opportunities to newer officers with different ideas etc.

I think by concentrating on the military (an institution he knows nothing about and which he subverted in 2000 as a Speight supporter he led other Labasa chief in the unlawful takeover of the Army barracks in Labasa) Naiqama is also showing how out of touch he is with the bread and butter concerns of the grassroots in Fiji.

An interesting case, again, of making a mockery of Fiji’s ‘rule of law’ and a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black.

Graffiti is usual and common form (art/method) of political protest and dissent, now even acceptable, in most of the first world countries and as well as developing democracies like India and Sri Lanka.

To hire Hong Kong bigwigs and paying them a fortune, five star accommodations and meals to prosecute Graffiti artists who merely expressed their core feelings towards a relentless dictatorship, now with Sedition, is not only OTT (over-the-top) reaction on the part of the DPP but a clear suggestion of their sheer incompetence.

Forget the Graffiti – Who could or did abrogate Peoples’ 1997 Constitution of Fiji? Now that’s TREASON!

Perhaps the HK Bigwigs have a chance, here, of crunching the more important Constitutional question in this case.

The accused are heroes, who were merely expressing their political beliefs – and which such beliefs were anti-dictatorship and pro-democracy and pro-Constitution. Now what is wrong with that?

Leave SODELPA alone. At least they agree to disagree. As against the Fiji Thief Party where all decisions are made by two men, and acknowledged by the rest as OK - 'out of respect for the leaders' otherwise interpreted as lamusona. The only man that once had balls in that party is Dr. Neil Sharma who has reclaimed his credibility after his 'resignation'

Yes, many were charged after the Rabuka, Speight and now Bainimarama coups...
You forgot to mention that MANY Have Also NOT been charged after those same coups.
Many continue to masquerade in the garb of respectability even carrying the title " Honourable " this and " Honourable " that.

There are many shortcomings of bai/kai rule, dictatorial, suspicious judiciary and lack of class ministers with Khaiyum controlling many key portfolio.

But in all of this somewhat bizarre and erratic rule they do have some key reform policies which seem to be boosting the economy :such as reduction in duties which now see better buses and farm utilities, reduction in personal and corporate tax bringing more consumer spending and investment , increased taxi fares so we have better taxis, more capital projects and better asset management of infrastructure etc.Obviously there are many areas still requiring attention such as Sugar Industry, Forestry etc.

Now this leaves a large task for the Opposition to articulate better policies on all facets if they are be serious contenders for the next General Elections.

Sadly the likes of Naiqama and Kepa are stuck in the past and not capitalising on policy initiatives, whether it be with respect to land, education, employment, health or other deliverables.

It seems behind all these rigmarole in domestic politics stands Mr and Mrs Citizen and their youth watching vigilantly the politicians every moves. Some citizens bow in shame, others in awe, while some others shut off all these rigmarole from their valued brain space!
What is distressing is that a legal mind MP stoops to even acknowledge an unsigned document as his credible source for some wild unsubstantiated allegations! …or was it this person who may have been the author of document himself after all?? He has not denied it either!
2018 is just around the corner and seems no urgency at all shown by major opposition parties to campaign towards a better election results to redeem the embarrassing and lopsided results of the last national elections under new constitution.
As a SODELPA sympathizer am concerned new political parties with a clean slate and worthy manifestos and x factor candidates may prop up from every corner should the present opposition parties fail to put their game plan together soon!!

I just hate it when the "signs" of a coup-de-tat pops out of nowhere....no wonder why the country is forever perfectly fine, except for some clueless people who screw it up for their own personal agenda like Georgie Porgie himself who is now locked up at Naboro.

I wouldn't be impressed if this division within the opposition leads to their downfall
