A group of about 20 people who marched to the Prime Minister's office in Nuku'’alofa today waving Freedom banners were stopped outside the door, and asked to write a letter expressing their concerns.

Led by Siale Fihaki and Mo'ale Finau, the protesters marched from Pangai Lahi carrying banners declaring that "Freedom is being able to elect our leaders" and "Unity and Solidarity for Freedom".

They were denied entry to the Prime Minister's Office by Falekava Kupu, the Acting Secretary, who came out and asked the group what they wanted and then asked them to go back and submit a letter of their concerns.

But instead the protesters gathered outside the office entrance yelling for their freedom to be given.

The group was also told that Government was still working on the previous proposed amendment to the Constitution submitted by Laki Niu to Cabinet on October 14.

Siale Fihaki who replied on behalf of the protesters said they had had enough talking that is why they came personally to the Prime Minister'’s Office to tell them that the people want not only their freedom but to elect all members of Cabinet as well as the Prime Minister.

"We do not want anyone who we did not elect to govern us because that is not what we want", said Siale.

The small gathering after voicing their concern peacefully dispersed from the Prime Minister's Office and returned to continue rallying for freedom at Pangai Si'i.
