There is a possibility that the appointment of Fiji's Vice President will be top on the agenda in the next GCC council meeting.
In an exclusive interview with Legend FM news this afternoon, GCC member and Tui Tavua Ratu Ovini Bokini said that the issues regarding the appointment of the Vice President is yet to be resolved, since that was one of the main reasons why GCC members were suspended by the interim administration in December last year.
Ratu Ovini said some GCC members will be meeting tomorrow to discuss the matter before consulting the interim Fijian Affairs Minister Ratu Epeli Ganilau in good faith to sanction an official GCC meeting.
The Tavua High chief still maintains that he still holds the position as Council Chairman.
However Ratu Epeli Ganilau said as far as the interim administration is concerned, Ratu Ovini Bokini is no longer the Chair and the member should wait for the next meeting sanctioned by the ministry to make the new appointments.
Ratu Epeli said the planned GCC meeting in Bau next week will not be recognised by the interim government.
