RFMF Commander reminds troops to remain apolitical

With 20 days to go for the General Elections, Commander of the RFMF Brigadier General Mosese Tikoitoga has reiterated to his soldiers to remain apolitical.

While speaking during the Commanders Parade for military personnel returning from Golan Heights, Tikoitoga reminded the soldiers of their responsibilities ahead of the elections.

Tikoitoga stressed that they will support any government that comes into power.

He said they will uphold and protect the 2013 constitution.

The Army Commander also praised the services of the 511 soldiers who returned from Golan Heights.

Tikoitoga said he is proud of the RFMF and the government for responding to the call from the United Nations.

He said this could not be made possible without the many sacrifices of the soldiers.

434 Fijian soldiers are currently serving under the United Nations Disengagement Observers Force.
