Outgoing RFMF Commander Brigadier General Mosese Tikoitoga has dismissed claims made on social media regarding the detainment of Attorney General, Aiyaz Sayed Khaiyum.

Tikoitoga says Fiji now thrives on rumors but no one can control what’s posted on social media.

He has assured the nation there was no such detainment.

‘’The Attorney General has played a pivotal role in the construction of our government and the way our government will run in the future and we have to give him credit for it. The RFMMF is very stable and we’re all still very good friends and I’m leaving with very fond memories of the institution and it will be taken over by better people who can raise above the occasion. But it’s very unfortunate that people pick up these circumstances to raise their own views and raise their own excitement in the community’’.

Tikoitoga has also acknowledged the mainstream media for reporting on the facts and not picking up rumors that have been posted on social media.

Meanwhile, the Chairperson of the Media Industry Development Authority, Ashwin Raj has advised the public to take heed of the assurance given by Tikoitoga and ignore materials posted on social media.
