Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama is calling on Fijians to reflect on how one can strive to welcome and love each other in the same manner that Jesus did.

In his Easter message to the nation, Bainimarama is asking Fijians to reflect during this both solemn and joyous occasion.

The Prime Minister adds Easter is among the most important events on our national calendar and a central conviction of the Christian faith.

“For Fijians, the life and death of Jesus carry lessons that carry profound meaning for each of us. Jesus’s life was a life dedicated to the service of all people, from all walks of life. His love touched the hearts of women, men, children, youths and elders from all different faiths, different socio-economic backgrounds, and different cultures.”

Bainimarama is wishing every Fijian a happy, safe and blessed Easter.
