Fiji Labour Party leader Mahendra Chaudhry has called on Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka to redirect his focus from road inspections to addressing the pressing needs of flood victims in the Western Division. Chaudhry expressed his concerns in a social media post, highlighting the urgency of the situation for those affected by the recent flooding.
He pointed out that the Prime Minister’s recent tour in the Northern region for road maintenance seemed misplaced, considering the dire conditions in areas like Sigatoka, Nadi, Ra, Ba, and Tavua. Reports from these areas indicated that relevant government agencies have not yet taken sufficient action to assist the victims.
Chaudhry implored the Prime Minister to prioritize immediate relief efforts, emphasizing that the cyclone season has just begun. He warned that any delay in the response to disaster victims must be addressed swiftly to mitigate further hardship.
This call to action underscores the importance of prioritizing humanitarian needs, especially in challenging circumstances. As the cyclone season progresses, it is vital for the government to mobilize resources and support to those affected, reaffirming its commitment to the well-being of all citizens. The message serves as a reminder that timely intervention can make a significant difference in the lives of those facing adversity.
