Today I was so proud to be a member of the Opposition, I hold my team with the highest regard and could not be happier to serve among such distinguished leaders, says Member for Hiri-Koiari Keith Iduhu after the Vote of No Confidence (VONC) yesterday. Mr. Iduhu said in regard to the VONC there should have been a debate yesterday as it was explicitly stated in the Supreme Court’s orders. “Even if the speaker felt otherwise, by normal parliamentary standards we always debate important decisions and legislation. So why doesn’t something important like voting to install a new PM have the opportunity for debate? Shouldn’t this be the prime opportunity for the nation to hear why we believe as individual MPs why James Marape should be removed? In the same vein, the Government MPs have the duty to explain why they believe Marape should be given more time,” he said. Mr. Iduhu said that though the Prime Minister remains, the principles of their conviction were on display for the country to witness and he is sure Papua New Guinea saw their (Opposition) commitment to the people. “I remain with the people's team so long as this country requires honest and true leadership to hold the government accountable. My calls for better leadership, equitable access to education, healthcare and our resources will always be something I’m vocal about. Today’s result does not discourage me or my colleagues from being vocal about issues. In fact, it drives our resolve even more. We are at the crossroads of our country’s future, and we will not stand by and let the few destroy the chances for the many. PNG deserves so much more than what it's currently getting. I remain steadfast in fighting for my people, country and the future. 50 years from now, I would like to be remembered for making hard decisions that were necessary, not easy ones that were unnecessary,” Mr. Iduhu stated.
