Nearly two years after the 2022 General Elections, there has been no significant update regarding the investigations into the controversial vote counting issues experienced during the election. The Electoral Commission previously raised concerns about the ongoing delay, acknowledging that the government has its own procedural requirements.

At a recent forum on cybercrime and electronic evidence held in Nadroga, Minister for Justice Siromi Turaga stated that the investigation’s report is still under review, considering recent developments. He mentioned having maintained discussions with the Electoral Commission’s committee and anticipates further meetings with the Supervisor of Elections.

“We have reached some primary decisions and findings that require additional consideration,” Mr. Turaga said. “Full disclosure will be possible only after informing the Cabinet.”

While the prolonged timeline for this investigation may raise questions among the public, the ongoing discussions indicate a commitment to addressing the issues raised during the electoral process. It reminds us that thorough investigations take time and careful consideration to ensure transparency and accountability in governance.

In summary, although the investigation’s slow progress is concerning for many, there are indications of active dialogue and a methodical approach, which could lead to clearer resolutions in the future.

This article serves to highlight the importance of electoral integrity and the ongoing efforts by officials to ensure that the concerns raised during the elections are thoroughly addressed, fostering hope for a more transparent electoral process moving forward.
