Prime Minister should be truthful about what he envisioned for Tonga: Sunia Fili Featured

Sunia Fili former MP and former Cabinet Minister Sunia Fili former MP and former Cabinet Minister

1 Sepitema, 2017. A former Tongan government minister says 'Akilisi Pohiva should be honest about his intentions.

Mr Pohiva's term as Prime Minister has been shortened by the royal dissolution of parliament which was triggered by claims his government was trying to concentrate power within cabinet by taking over some of the King's appointment authority.

Mr Pohiva argues he was trying to protect the Royal family because the Privy Council, an elite group of advisors, had not given the best advice to His Majesty in the past.

However Sunia Fili, a one time member of Mr Pohiva's democracy party, said he believed his former political ally should be truthful about what he envisioned for Tonga.

"He should speak it out that we are about to go on for the next step, as is coming on the news, that he is trying to take the authority or the Constitutional rights of the King. To us, I think that is what is in his mind," he said.

    Sunia is only confirming what everyone has known for years, that 'akilisi's ultimate goal has always been to bring down the monarchy and the nobility. He is desperately groping blindly for something to hold on resulting is his mouth dispensing contradicting stories. He is a pathological liar with a mean, selfish evil heart.
    He and his family has declared war on the one person who saved him many times from jail at minimal or no cost, the lawyer Nalesoni Tupou.
