Attorney General and Minister for Information Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum says the government does not tell the Fiji Sun what to put on their front page and they do not really care about what they print about somebody’s personal life as that person is no longer in the party.

Sayed-Khaiyum says for the past couple of days he has been listening to the Opposition talk about articles run by the Fiji Sun on a former Minister of FijiFirst.

He says Fiji’s newspaper articles are replete with what one would call affairs adding that no one condemned it.

Sayed-Khaiyum also says no one said anything about it because they simply maybe were commoner women.

The AG adds those women were publicly dragged into this incident because of those politicians, but the Opposition did not utter a word because it is politically expedient for them to do it now, not then.
