Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka made a special and unanticipated visit to the home of former parliamentarian Salote Radrodro in Namulomulo, Nabouwalu, Bua, yesterday. This visit, which took place after Ms. Radrodro’s release from prison earlier this September, provided an opportunity for Mr. Rabuka to gain insights into the operations of the copra industry.
During his tour of significant sites associated with the China Aid Vanua Levu Road Development Project, the Prime Minister took some time to connect with Ms. Radrodro and her family. Ms. Radrodro’s son, Alipate Radrodro, expressed gratitude to Mr. Rabuka for his visit, highlighting their prior opportunity to interact with the Prime Minister a few days before the New Year. He shared hopes for a safe New Year and a prosperous 2025.
The visit took Ms. Radrodro’s family by surprise as it occurred shortly after a church service, and she expressed her best wishes to the Prime Minister and the Coalition Government as they enter the New Year.
This visit signifies the importance of connection and support in the community, especially following recent challenges faced by Ms. Radrodro. It also reflects a positive engagement between the government and its citizens, fostering hope and collaboration for the upcoming year. Such gestures from political leaders can strengthen community ties and promote a sense of unity among citizens.
Overall, this unexpected visit epitomizes goodwill and a commitment to understanding the issues affecting individuals and industries in Fiji.
