PM urges youths to have a say

Fiji’s Prime Minister Commodore Voreqe Bainimarama has encouraged youths to participate in the electronic voter registration and constitution consultations.

While launching the start of upgrading works at the National Stadium yesterday, Bainimarama in statement said youths have to make the effort.

Commodore Bainimarama said it is an investment in their future – the future of Fiji.

He said the consultations were not intended solely for the elite groups, who have traditionally held power in this country.

Bainimarama said the Constitution Commission seek to hear from all Fijians and no Fijian should think that they do not have anything of value to contribute.

Through unique, individual experiences, he said each and every person has gained knowledge and insight that is important for the commission to hear.
