Minister for Home Affairs and Immigration, Pio Tikoduadua

Minister for Home Affairs and Immigration, Pio Tikoduadua has called on the Great Council of Chiefs Chairman, Ratu Viliame Seruvakula to provide him the names of those drug kingpins who have not been tracked and arrested.

This comes after the question raised by Ratu Viliame during fijivillage Straight Talk with Vijay Narayan on why the drug kingpins are yet to be arrested.

Ratu Viliame says what the Fijian authorities needed to do was follow the money and catch the main suppliers.

He says urgent action is needed as he believes some people are helping these drug kingpins.
