NFP, SODELPA, FAP and FLP says they are not campaigning along religious and racial lines

The National Federation Party, SODELPA, Freedom Alliance Party and Fiji Labour Party say they are not campaigning along religious and racial lines.

In a press conference, the parties responded to comments by the Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama and Attorney General Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum that some parties are campaigning along ethnic and religious lines.

This also comes as the Electoral Commission is working with the Fiji Independent Commission Against Corruption to immediately investigate and finalize all the complaints in relation to elections.

It has urged political parties to keep election campaigns clean and clear from religious vilification and racial discrimination.

Members of the public who are present in such meetings and instances are requested to use their smart phones to record such behaviour and furnish the same to the Electoral Commission or to FICAC directly
