There are strong indications that the Tui Cakau and Opposition Leader Ratu Naiqama Lalabalavu will join the People’s Alliance as Sitiveni Rabuka has confirmed that he has already asked Ratu Naiqama to join his party.

Rabuka says Ratu Naiqama needs to leave SODELPA first and he will then be able to join them.

He says the Tui Cakau was part of the encouraging group that supported him to go and form a new party.

Rabuka says Ratu Naiqama will always be supporting him. He says the Tui Cakau is his paramount chief and his access to him cannot be limited by political party boundaries.

Rabuka says he hopes that Ratu Naiqama will join as he has a big Vanua following and is related to the other two chiefly households of Burebasaga and Kubuna.

Meanwhile, SODELPA’s General Secretary Lenaitasi Duru says Ratu Naiqama should inform the people and SODELPA if he is moving to the People’s Alliance.
