The province of Tailevu led by the chiefs from Bau today presented a tabua or whales tooth to the Prime Minister Commodore Voreqe Bainimarama to show their support to Bainimarama's leadership and to the government of the day.
Speaking on behalf of the Cakobau family which included Ratu Epenisa Cakobau, Ratu George Cakobau, Adi Samanunu Cakobau and the other chiefs from the Province of Tailevu, Ratu Tuakitau Cokanauto assured Commodore Bainimarama that his province is totally behind him to support what he has planned for the nation until the next general election in 2014.
Ratu Cokanauto then told Bainimarama to be strong as he said that Rome was not built in a day and if there are elements within the government who are trying to rush changes in his leadership they should be told to try and be patient.
He said everyone wants a change and a better Fiji and his chiefs have decided to present the tabua today to show their son that they will stand with him in the decisions he will make.
Commodore Bainimarama then received the tabua from the Chiefs of Tailevu and thanked the province for their support.
The Chiefs of Tailevu led by Ratu Epenisa Cakobau and Ratu Tuakitau Cokanauto then met with Commodore Bainimarama after the presentation to show him their support.
