SODELPA appoints new deputy leader, challenges PAP over constitutional reform

Fiji's Social Democratic Liberal Party (SODELPA) has appointed Jiu Daunivalu, former chief executive of the Fiji Crop and Livestock Council, as its new Deputy Party Leader. The appointment coincides with the party intensifying its opposition to the current government's proposed constitutional reforms.

The leadership change and policy challenge mark a significant political development within SODELPA as it positions itself against the ruling People's Alliance Party (PAP) coalition regarding the administration's legislative agenda on constitutional matters.
