Our government will remove threats to media freedom that have no place in a democracy.
This was the pledge made by Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka as he delivered his eulogy during the funeral service of the late Allen Lockington in Lautoka today.
Rabuka says Lockington will be remembered as a hero who flew the flag of freedom.
The Prime Minister says Lockington, an ardent letter writer, spent his last days in the thought of helping the people, by dictating his last letter from his hospital bed, asking for a hot water system for patients.
