National Federation Party Leader Professor Biman Prasad says the Prime Minister’s ranting at the Namosi Provincial Council meeting will not hide the fact that the Government’s own Bureau of Statistics produced a Poverty Report that stated very clearly that 75% of those that live below the poverty line are iTaukei.
He says it is unbecoming of a Prime Minister to use his speech at the meeting to criticize Opposition political parties.
Professor Prasad says he knows that the Prime Minister is worried about the alliance between the National Federation Party and People’s Alliance.
He says instead of ranting about Opposition political parties, the Prime Minister should tell the people why they have not been able to fix the deteriorating health services in this country.
Professor Prasad adds it is also not surprising that the Prime Minister is once again trying to stoke fear into the minds of the people by talking about the iTaukei and Indo Fijians and forgetting their own narrative that we are all Fijians.
