In Fiji, Methodist Church ministers who want to enter party politics will have to resign from ministry.
That is the message from church communications secretary Reverend James Bhagwan.
“If any minister wants to join a political party and stand under the party’s banner, they will have to resign from their appointment,” he said.
Bhagwan said the church would also continue to encourage people to exercise their democratic rights.
“It’s been a while since we have been able to vote — when we do have election, people should exercise good judgement, vote for responsible leaders who have integrity and good character.”
