GIZO

GIZO/Kolombangara Constituency voters are being urged to vote wisely in this by- election.

Governor General, Sir Frank Kabui yesterday announced the by-election for May 23.

A Mr Mathew Kabobule shares with Island Sun Gizo that voters must be wary of candidates who will follow their own interest once in power.

“People need leaders with performance, character and they have vision, courage, integrity, humility and focus along with the ability to plan strategically and catalyse cooperation amongst their people living in rural areas.

“We need leaders with vision and they can see our future.”

Gizo/ Kolombangara has been without a Member of Parliament (MP) since December 2017 when the previous MP lost his seat after the High Court ruled he treated and bribed people to vote for him during the 2014 National General Election.

Former Prime Minister Gordon Darcy Lilo and about three other candidates will contest the seat.
