FijiFirst General Secretary, Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum and NFP Leader, Prof. Biman Prasad

The General Secretary of FijiFirst Party Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum claims during the 2000 coup, women in Dreketi were forced to get naked and cook while the Leader of the National Federation Party, Professor Biman Prasad says he has families from Dreketi, and they have never mentioned anything as such.

While speaking in Hindi in a rally in Tavua, Sayed-Khaiyum says they are not restricted by Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama to talk openly on what had happened in parliament, and he raised issues as to what had happened in 2000 where women were forced to get naked and cook.

Professor Prasad says people don’t believe anything Sayed-Khaiyum says now and no one knows how he has gotten this information.

He adds Sayed-Khaiyum cooks up facts.

Sayed-Khaiyum also says Professor Prasad is a man who holds People’s Alliance Party Leader Sitiveni Rabuka’s tail and claims Rabuka is the best Prime Minister.

Professor Prasad says Sayed-Khaiyum has descended to his lowest gutter level campaign and lies.

Professor Prasad also says Sayed-Khaiyum knows people have seen through his lies, so he is now resorting to talking about race, and religion and is also attacking the Bhajanias (bhajan singers).

Professor Prasad adds one of his candidates Shiu Dayal is one of the best Bhajanias in Fiji and he is also an educated person.
