Deputy Prime Minister Bradley Tovosia has described the unnamed sources quoted in the Island Sun newspaper article, “Looming GNUT Sacks,” as busybodies.
The Deputy Prime Minister challenged the unnamed sources to reveal their true identities to give credibility to their claims; otherwise, he argued, anonymous sources are as fake as their statements.
DPM Tovosia stated that the Government for National Unity and Transformation (GNUT) remains united and unmoved amid these fabricated stories. He added that it is clear these rumours are spread by individuals hungry for power.
The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized that the government is focused on implementing beneficial policies for the people’s well-being and has no time to waste on petty politics.
DPM Tovosia noted that those fabricating these rumours have no interest in developing the country; all they seek is power. “What a shame!” he remarked.
The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized that GNUT is comprised of like-minded leaders dedicated to making a difference in people’s lives. He added that the coalition is intact, and no one with ulterior motives can undo that unity.
DPM Tovosia also highlighted that political instability has been the cause of development stagnation in the country for far too long. Governments have been unable to implement their policies due to this instability. GNUT is determined and committed to providing stable leadership dedicated to creating transformational change in the country.
DPM Tovosia urged the Media Association of Solomon Islands (MASI) to monitor its members regarding their conduct. He pointed out that the use of anonymous sources is being abused and brings disrepute to journalism as a profession.
The Deputy Prime Minister also calls on everyone to continue to pray for our nation as we all work towards uniting and transforming our country.
