Take it or leave it.
This is the message from the Public Rental Board to those tenants living in the four storey buildings in Raiwai and Raiwaqa. The PRB also said not everyone who lives in the flats is financially disadvantaged.
Chief Executive Officer, Mesake Senibulu said the Board has given four options to the current tenants who have not moved out despite being told to move out since March 2004.
Majority of the tenants are opposed to the idea of moving as they are low income earners and cannot afford to move to a new place.
However Amelia Tuicakau, a resident at the Raiwai Flats, who has been living in the four storey building for a number of years, said she is pleased with the stance taken by the Public Rental Board.
Over 200 families currently living in the four storey buildings at Raiwai and Raiwaqa have been told to move out by December this year. The buildings were declared unsafe back in 2004.
Interim Local Government Minister, Lekh Ram Vayeshnoi has referred everything to the Public Rental Board.
