Unity Fiji Party Leader, Savenaca Narube

Unity Fiji Party Leader, Savenaca Narube stood in solidarity with staff of the University of the South Pacific during their fourth day of strike and echoed similar sentiments by the members saying that poor leadership has taken the University down.

Narube says he is thankful to the University for accepting his delegation to talk at the strike and wanted to send a clear message that he is supporting the strike and the concerns of the staff and unions.

He says that it takes courage and commitment to change things and he wanted to make things clear they are not fighting alone.

Narube reiterates that good governance has been on a decline for a long time at the University, as he poses the question of when the decline is going to end.

He commends the unions and staff for the fight and he is urging them to continue the good fight till good sense prevails.

Narube stresses that people in leadership should not have their values and work ethics corrode and people must strengthen good governance.

He says accountability needs to be restored at the University.
