Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama has honoured the life of Turaga-ni-Koro, Morotikei Mainilala, serving in Baleyaganiga Village on Vanua Levu who was allegedly brutally killed while trying to break up a drinking party.
He says those suspected of involvement have been charged. The Prime Minister says the ban on social gatherings exists to stop the sort of person-to-person contact that spreads the deadly coronavirus.
He says it’s clear Mainilala knew that and it’s why he strove to prevent his fellow Fijians from violating the health protection measures.
Bainimarama has extended his deepest sympathies to his wife, his six children, and his community.
He says Mainilala’s family and all of Fiji, have lost a responsible leader and a brave Fijian.
