When we openly profess our religion, we must expect to be spoken against - Rabuka

Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka

Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka says when we are talking in a mixed group we should be mindful of what we say, and saying something religious does not mean they are trying to promote their own religion.

Rabuka made the comments while speaking on fijivillage Straight Talk with Vijay Narayan about questions raised by some people regarding religious, mainly Christian messages and content put on official government platforms.

He says he agrees with the view that we should be mindful of what people take offence at, and when they openly profess their religion, they must expect to be spoken against.

When questioned about the coalition government seeming to side with the iTaukei community even in major government appointments, Rabuka says people should not be unduly concerned about that.

He says they are trying to put the best qualified people and those who they would be most comfortable with as their advisors especially on boards.

The Prime Minister says they have a mission and want to put people they trust, know and can rely on to perform for them and for the people on task force for the mission.

Rabuka says there is no nepotism and revenge on former FijiFirst supporters. He adds he does not even know who are the FijiFirst supporters.
