There is no nepotism in the appointment of Commander Francis Kean back to the Naval Division as Commander Navy.
That is the confirmation from the Military spokesperson Major Neumi Leweni.
Major Leweni said the decision by the Republic of Fiji Military Forces was based on merit, being the right person for the right job and the ability of Commander Kean to lead the Naval Division.
During his period as Commander Navy, the unit had excelled in its performance and standard to a very high level, so Kean is the right person for the right job.
Leweni said recently, the Government and the Fiji Prison Services had ventured in the Yellow Ribbon Project, allowing offenders who have been remorseful for their acts, an opportunity to be re-absorbed back into society. Commander Kean and Peniasi Kunatuba the former Permanent Secretary for Agriculture has been a few of the many.
