Kiti Temo, currently serving as the Official Secretary for the Office of the President, is expected to take on the role of Chief of Protocol within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This transition comes after the Office of the President publicly advertised her current position in the newspapers over the weekend.

Ms. Temo has been in her role as Official Secretary since the presidency of Jioji Konrote. This position is crucial as it ensures that the counsel provided to the President adheres to the Constitution of Fiji. The new Chief of Protocol will closely collaborate with the Prime Minister and Cabinet Ministers, working through their Permanent Secretaries to guarantee that the advice offered to the President is accurate and constitutionally sound.

As the Head of Department, the Official Secretary will be responsible for managing the daily operations of the Office of the President, ensuring all activities align with legal standards.

The job listing emphasized the need for applicants to uphold public service values as detailed in the Fijian Constitution, highlighting the necessity of good character and integrity. Additionally, only Fijian citizens under the age of 60 are eligible to apply for this significant role.

This development could represent a positive step forward for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, signaling a commitment to uphold constitutional values and enhance the governance framework in Fiji. It reflects a broader effort to maintain integrity in public service and could inspire others in the community to engage in civic roles and follow the principles laid out in the Constitution.
