Former Attorney General Aiyaz Sayed Khaiyum has come out sparring in his first interview with the media since returning from Singapore late last year where he underwent medical surgery.

As a result of his fiery statements, a war of words has erupted after he said Finance Minister Professor Biman Prasad “had absolutely no clue on how to run a modern economy”. That’s the big news on the front page of The Fiji Times for Wednesday, January 17.

In the second story on the front page, how did three tons of meth enter our borders?

That is the question by Home Affairs Minister Pio Tikoduadua asked as he hinted there could be a whole network of people behind the haul.

The former military man has called on the Police Force to get to the bottom of the discovery.

Kaila!
