COSTLY

It is believed that the real reason why the fautasi crew from Pago are not coming is the cost it would incur. Even though the travel costs are being borne by the government, it’s the money that will be given as gifts that is of concern.

VANISHED

A candidate from the by-election held last weekend has done a disappearing act. All social media profiles are turned off, and he is hardly ever seen anywhere. Losing in an election should not be taken so hard.

STONES

People were throwing stones across the busy road at Sogi. Even before the police could react, the video was on social media. Someone could have been hurt. Stones have killed people. Hopefully, the police will take action.

BRIBED

True or fake? There are claims online of money being given to buy votes. Online claims alone do not hold the candidate responsible or accountable. If the claims are true, then it should make a good case if an election petition is filed.

SUBSIDY

This would be a good time to allow subsidies for livestock farmers to bring in more cattle. The price of imported meat is about to reach the roof. It’s either that, or people should be given time off to catch fish.
