The People’s Alliance has raised concerns on issues that they believe has affected a lot of Fijians under the leadership of the FijiFirst Government.

While speaking in a press conference, People’s Alliance founding member, Ajay Amrit has again raised concerns about what he says is a two men rule government.

Amrit says the state of health facilities in Fiji is a national shame as it continues to deteriorate.

The People’s Alliance also raised their concerns on the poor wage rate compared to the salary of government ministers and the Prime Minister, unemployment which can lead to increase in crimes and the increase in the number of people living with poverty.

Amrit says the People’s Alliance is also concerned with the education system especially with the overcrowding of students in a classroom and the ongoing water and power cuts.

He says the People’s Alliance will work with the NFP, and address all these concerning issues.
