No problems with one man one vote system-NFP, SODELPA

No problems with one man one vote system-NFP, SODELPA
Two political parties have come out and said that they do not have any problems with the one man one vote system.

This follows comments by the Prime Minister that some old politicians opposing the 2013 constitution are scared to face the judgement of all Fijians.

Commodore Bainimarama said these old politicians do not want equal votes of equal value as they held their positions in the past due to people voting under an ethnic based electoral system. 

The Prime Minister also said that the politicians will now have to appeal to everyone and they are terrified of that.

Senior member of the Social Democratic and Liberal Party, Doctor Tupeni Baba said they are not against the one man one vote system and SODELPA is not the one that delayed the election.


Doctor Baba said SODELPA is not terrified of the new system and the party only wants a free and fair election.


National Federation Party President, Raman Pratap Singh said they have always supported the one man one vote system.


The Fiji Labour Party is yet to comment.
