The Social Democratic Liberal Party President has labelled Lynda Tabuya’s call for his resignation as an attack on democracy and their voter’s support.

Ratu Epenisa Cakobau in a statement says Tabuya’s brand of politics is to create division and doubt, a legacy she will carry with her wherever she goes.

He adds that Tabuya’s comments are distasteful and an insult to Party members.

Ratu Epenisa also says that Tabuya’s comments were a result of her failure to influence his decisions in the past.

The Party President reiterated that he does not have any intention to contest the 2022 election.

Responding to Ratu Epenisa, Tabuya says the Party President failed in his role to unite the party and deal with the 70 grievances before him.

Tabuya in her statement claims that she went public to stand with Kadavu when the SODELPA Kadavu president was blocked for the third time from attending the management board meeting.

She adds that Ratu Epenisa has not only failed to unite the party but has caused a lot of division in the vanua constituencies including Navosa, Kadavu, Bua, Lomaiviti and Ba.

Tabuya again called for Party President Ratu Epenisa Cakobau and Party Leader Viliame Gavoka to resign.
