Triumph

Right Must

“Right must triumph!”

That’s the view of Head Chief Deßoburt in his battle with the Nauru Parliament on the constitutional issue. He says he’ll keep fighting.

He told PIM on January 10 that he firmly believed his approach to be right, and that right had to triumph.

The President, he said, had the right to choose his Cabinet, and the Cabinet members of the President’s choosing had the right to defend themselves in parlia ment.

Parliament had wanted him to refuse postings to three Ministers without saying why they were unac ceptable. And they were using parliamentary num bers to get their own way; they were using numbers through a political party, and political parties were not in the spirit of the constitution.

“Nauru is split over these important issues, and I’ll keep fighting for what 1 believe to be right,” the former President added.
