Through the truth and reconciliation process regarding the coups and mutiny in Fiji, people have sought forgiveness, but what haunts them is that they have not revealed the truth.

Leader of the Opposition, Inia Seruiratu highlighted this during fijivillage Straight Talk with Vijay Narayan and said people need to reveal the truth so that a new direction can be set for Fiji.

Seruiratu says the Republic of Fiji Military Forces has been doing a lot of reconciliation, and he has challenged the team to tell the truth.

He says let's do the truth and reconciliation correctly because we have to put this to rest.

When questioned about those who say to just forget and move on, Seruiratu says people are all different.

He says some have chosen to forget the past, but unfortunately, some still feel offended and hurt.

When asked if he believes that the former FijiFirst leader and Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama would be willing to come out and also take part in the process, Seruiratu says it is something he has also raised and the Law Reform Commission has the power to summon people that can participate in the process.
