SODELPA Leader Sitiveni Rabuka on our special general elections talkback show, Straight Talk with our News Director Vijay Narayan last night

SODELPA Leader Sitiveni Rabuka says that they are aiming to win 28 seats in next month's General Elections to form government.

Rabuka made this comment on our special general elections talkback show, Straight Talk with our News Director Vijay Narayan last night.

He believes they have the numbers to win the 28 seats. 

However Rabuka says that if they are the major party and have to form a coalition, they are open to working with other parties.

When asked if he can work with FijiFirst, Rabuka said that he cannot work with them if SODELPA is the minor partners in the coalition.

When asked that their policies do not match, Rabuka said that he can work with them but he has some conditions.

Rabuka says that he can work with any other party even if they are the minor partners except with FijiFirst.

Rabuka also adds that they had coalition talks with the National Federation Party but nothing materialized.

FijiFirst Party Leader Voreqe Bainimarama had earlier stated that they want to win the 51 seats in Parliament.

Meanwhile, NFP Leader Professor Biman Prasad will be on the Straight Talk Show next Monday, FijiFirst General Secretary Aiyaz Sayed‑Khaiyum will be on the show next Tuesday, Unity Fiji leader Savenaca Narube will appear on the show on Wednesday while Biman Prasad and Aiyaz Sayed‑Khaiyum will appear on the show on Thursday.
