About our Fijian Politics news
Latest news on politics in Fiji, with coverage on political parties, upcoming elections and policy changes.
Fiji's political landscape has long been influenced by tensions between the indigenous Fijian population and the Indo-Fijian community, leading to a series of coups and political instability. Following a series of military coups in the late 20th century, a new constitution was promulgated, establishing a system of parliamentary democracy with proportional representation.
The FijiFirst Party, founded by Frank Bainimarama, largely dominated Fijian politics since 2014. However, their eight-year rule came to an end following the 2022 election, with Sitiveni Rabuka being elected as Prime Minister, leading a three-party coalition consisting of the People's Alliance, National Federation Party, and the Social Democratic Liberal Party (SODELPA).
