12-27-2022
After the recent general election on December 14 three political parties joined to form a new government in Fiji.
The election results showed Bainimarama’s FijiFirst party winning 42.5 percent of the vote, Rabuka’s People’s Alliance Party with 36 percent, the National Federation Party with 9 percent, and the Social Liberal Democratic Party (SODELPA) with more than 5 percent.
The Social Democratic Liberal Party (SODELPA), a power-broker holding three seats in the hung parliament, announced it had decided to form a coalition with Sitiveni Rabuka’s People’s Alliance and the National Federation Party.
At a livestreamed news conference, Rabuka thanked the people of Fiji.
“They have voted for change and we have given them that,” he said.
