He says the Group of 9 has now joined the coalition government, and the Group of 16 plus one, have remained as the loyal opposition.

The Leader of Opposition says they remain the alternative government, and it is now clear where everyone stands.

Seruiratu says amongst the members of the G16 plus one, they have those who had served under the Bainimarama government, and then the FijiFirst from 2014, as ministers, assistant ministers, and as members of parliament.

He says they will build on the values that they aspired to as FijiFirst, and have learnt from what they achieved and they will build upon that.

The Leader of Opposition says they have also learnt from their shortcomings, and will rectify those. When questioned by fijivillage News, Duru maintains Seruiratu’s group is the better option.
