Leader of Opposition Ro Teimumu Kepa believes that Diwali should be about seeking to free the spirit of the nation to unite, rebuild and propel Fiji on the path of becoming a just and democratic nation.
Ro Teimumu highlighted that like all faith‑ based festivals, Diwali has its own significance.
She says Diwali is about evaluating our national life whether there is righteousness, justice and truth.
Ro Teimumu says that whether there are conducive environments for our farmers, labourers and businessmen to excel, if it does exist, then we have cause to celebrate indeed and if does not, then we must resolve to seek these essentials in nation building to unite as a nation.
