No more Coups: Vugalei Submission

September 3, 2012 7:16 pm

Calls have been made again to the Constitution Commission for an end to the coup culture.

The Commission was in Tailevu yesterday.

For the people of Vugalei, while proposals ranged from land and village issues to roads and women’s concerns, Taniela Colamoto had this to say.

If I may say there should be strong wording in the constitution so that we know that there will be no more coup, personally even the PM said that there will be no more coup, I don’t believe that, because he said exactly the same thing at the Bose Levu Vakaturaga in 2000 – may I propose the Great Council of Chiefs be reinstated.

The Commission moves to the Coral Coast tomorrow.
