Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance, Professor Biman Prasad says he was deeply honoured to attend the installation of Ratu Tevita Uluilakeba Mara as Tui Nayau and Tui Lau.

Professor Prasad says the National Federation Party has a proud and historic connection with the chiefly house of Lau.

He says it was with the wisdom and leadership of the late Tui Nayau and Tui Lau, Ratu Sir Kamisese Mara, that the NFP agreed to the terms of Fiji’s independence.

Professor Prasad says yesterday, they respectfully reaffirmed those historic ties with the people of Lau.

He extends his warmest wishes to Ratu Tevita for a reign that brings unity, prosperity, and peace to Lau — and through that, to our beloved nation.
