Without hard work, I would not have achieved the things I achieved today - Tokikivunuku

Elijah Tokikivunuku of Suva Grammar School made it three from three at the Coca-Cola Suva Zone 2 today.

He won the blue ribbon event with a time of 10.66 seconds followed by the Senior Boys 400 metres and helped his 4x400 metres relay team win gold in the final event.

Speaking to fijivillage News, Tokikivunuku says he did not expect what happened today because he just wanted to try out the athletics competition.

He also thanked God, the teachers and the Grammar family for the support and has dedicated his win to his mother who was watching him from the grandstand.

The Grammar student says without hard work it would be impossible for him to achieve the things he has achieved today.
