Tui Lawa Ratu Sevanaia Vatunitu on Friday reminded the newly inducted prefects of the two schools in Solevu Village that leaders were meant to serve.

“I want to emphasise that leaders are meant to serve, the badge given to you is not for show off and bully,” Ratu Sevanaia said.

“If you listen to your parent then obviously you can listen to your teachers and you will make yourself, teacher and parents proud.”

Ratu Sevanaia was speaking as the chief guest at the prefects induction of the Malolo District School and the Ratu Lalabalavu Memorial School (RLMS).
