The Military Council maintains that they will ensure that ousted Prime Minister Laisenia Qarase and the SDL Party do not return to power, as plans are now underway to scrap race based voting in Fiji.
Military spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Mosese Tikoitoga said politicians have used the race card for years to get votes and form governments.
He said this needs to change before the people of Fiji go to the polls again.
Meanwhile, in a statement, Commonwealth Secretary General Don McKinnon said it is unacceptable that Commodore Frank Bainimarama wants the ousted SDL Party to be banned from contesting the next elections.
