Opposition Member Niko Nawaikula has clarified in Parliament today that he did not ever promote the legalization of the consumption of marijuana in Fiji as it is against the teaching of his Catholic faith.
Nawaikula highlighted this after the Speaker of Parliament Dr. Jiko Luveni allowed him to give a personal explanation on his earlier question on the legalization of commercial harvesting of marijuana.
Nawaikula says this has subjected him and his family to public pressure.
Nawaikula says he had only referred to the commercial harvesting of marijuana in Fiji.
