Assistant Minister for Employment and Youth and Sports and Government Whip Alvick Maharaj

“When I see the other side I see a leader who did not have any vision for Fiji back in 1987 and shot a gun in this August House in which he sits today, showing disrespect to the highest office of the land.”

These are the words of the Assistant Minister for Employment and Youth and Sports and Government Whip Alvick Maharaj who has called out to the SODELPA Leader Sitiveni Rabuka as someone who totally shattered the economy of the country and ruined Fiji.

He made a comparison of the Opposition Leader to the Prime Minister while his speech in parliament earlier today.
