The Chairman of the Nadroga/Navosa Provincial Council Ratu Sakiusa Makutu today asked for forgiveness from the Government and also requested for their acceptance.
The Kalevu made the traditional apology on behalf of the province to the Commissioner Western Joeli Cawaki highlighting that the province of Nadroga Navosa was the first province in Fiji to oppose the formation of the People's Charter for Change.
Ratu Makutu said he has changed his stance with his people behind him and he will now support the Charter.
Meanwhile, the Turaga Na Kalevu said they are now awaiting word from the government on the proposal to separate the two provinces namely Nadroga Navosa.
Ratu Sakiusa Makutu highlighted to the chiefs and members of the Council that although the issue was raised in the previous meetings, the matter is now before the Prime Minister.
