It is going to be a big sporting weekend for rugby and boxing fans. The Fijian Drua take on the might of the Reds in Super Rugby Pacific while our local boxing champion Winston Hill takes on Jyl Wright in an Asia Pacific IBO title bout in Nadi.
The big one though on the front page of The Fiji Times for Friday, May 17 is on a statement by Home Affairs Minister Pio Tikoduadua.
Drugs in the country have spread like wildfire over the past 12 months and the Government alone cannot resolve this issue, it needs a collective effort by the people and stakeholders.
Mr Tikoduadua made the statement at the national talanoa session on illicit drugs and substance abuse disorders at the Fiji National University’s (FNU) Nasinu campus yesterday.
