The Triple N Zone has been halted due to adverse weather conditions in Suva this afternoon.

The games that got underway at the HFC Bank Stadium this morning was abruptly stopped as heavy rain and lightning continued.

Zone Delegate Solomone Seru says that the safety of students is paramount, hence the decision to stop the event.

“Whatever we have been discussing since last week is the weather and also the safety of our students, so now the reason why we are stopping the games today is because of the lightning. The safety of our students is very important.”
