Justice Minister must take responsibility for his actions: Opposition Leader  

LEADER of the Parliamentary Opposition Group Jeremiah Manele says no one is above the law and the rule of law must be respected.

Mr Manele said this in light of the traffic related charge against the Minister of Justice and Legal Affairs, William Marau, whom the court also issued a warrant of arrest for because of his failure to appear in court this week.

The Opposition Leader said as a minister of the crown and a leader of this country, Mr Marau must show leadership and take full responsibility for his actions.

Meanwhile, Mr Manele said such news portrays a very bad image on the kind of leaders this country have in the Prime Minister’s Cabinet.

“As the head of the Government, the Prime Minister must make sure his ministers and members of his Government are accountable for their actions,” he said.
