Fiji Sun headline might be unpalatable but it will go down well with voters
LEADER IS NOT AFRAID OF ANYONE: SODLEPA
“She is not now nor ever will be afraid of anyone or anything. She was not afraid when she was arrested in the middle of the night by jack-booted men in dark camouflage, detained in a police cell for several days and then taken to the army barracks to be detained yet again. When most were afraid of Frank, she has written and co-signed several public letters to Frank, protesting the abrogation of the Great Council of Chiefs, the proposed Namosi mine waste water spillage a[n]d marched with her people down Victoria Parade to present her formal document of protest against the 2013 Constitution” - Ro Kepa's spokesman Jese Sikivou
Fijileaks Editor to Sodelpa: If so, GO ON regime propaganda FBC Television station and tell it all to nation; after all, FijiVillage is another regime news stooge
Social Democratic Liberal Party leader Ro Teimumu Kepa is not afraid of anyone and her decision to pull out from an upcoming television show where she was to face FijiFirst leader and Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama was due to scheduling conflicts, says her private secretary and SODELPA's director of communications, Jese Sikivou. Sikivou said he manages her schedule, both political and personal and as a practical decision he had emailed the host of the show to decline the invitation to appear on FBC a second time .
“It should be noted and noted well that only a scant three weeks ago, the Gone Marama Bale appeared live and Frank Bainimarama, failed to show nor did he send in his apologies."
“Today we learn much too late from the Fiji Sun of Frank’s scheduling conflicts. Surely the Gone Marama Bale should be extended the same courtesy and we on the other hand have taken the professional courtesy of sending Edwin Nand our apologies,” Sikivou said. Sikivou said in reply to a local media headline ‘What is she afraid of?’ that Ro Teimumu fears no one but the Almighty. “She is not now nor ever will be afraid of anyone or anything. She was not afraid when she was arrested in the middle of the night by jack-booted men in dark camouflage, detained in a police cell for several days and then taken to the army barracks to be detained yet again.
“When most were afraid of Frank, she has written and co-signed several public letters to Frank, protesting the abrogation of the Great Council of Chiefs, the proposed Namosi mine waste water spillage ad marched with her people down Victoria Parade to present her formal document of protest against the 2013 Constitution,” he said.
Sikivou added “while the Gone Marama Bale proudly maintain the finest traditions of Nadroga warrior braves riding like the Lone Ranger, Frank always travels in an armada of heavily tinted 4 wheel drive vehicles surrounded by armed security guards. He is heavily guarded around the clock. Just by that casual observation, WHO IS AFRAID? “ Sikivou said he asked the host for a show format and after getting the answers, he made a conscious decision to decline the second invitation.
“This decision was carefully considered because we are still scheduled, as far as I know, to appear with Frank on various stations of Communications Fiji Limited. Sikivou said this coming Sunday should see Ro Teimumu and Prime Minister Bainimarama in a talk back show on another radio station.
“I hope this will allay all concerns and answer Jyoti Pratibha’s ridiculously capricious question. In turn I have a question for her and her rag, the Fiji Sun. Is this your pathetic and futile attempt to detract from Frank’s free fall poll numbers?” Sikivou said. Source: Fijilive
