Voter Services Expanded Around Fiji

The Fijian Elections Office (FEO) has expanded its ser­vices around the country.

As of yesterday, Voters Services are available at the following loca­tions:

• Sigatoka – Provincial Admin­istrator’s Office, Talenavuru­vuru, Sigatoka
• Taveuni – Cakaudrove Pro­vincial Office, Somosomo, Taveuni
• Nabouwalu – Naulumatua House
• Seaqaqa – Seaqaqa Assistant District Office
• Tavua – District Office
• Navua – Provincial Adminis­trator’s Office
• Ba – District Office
• Keiyasi – District Office, Nav­atumali Government Station, Keiyasi
• Korovou – Police Bure – Ko­rovou
• Levuka – Provincial Adminis­trator’s Office
• Kadavu – Provincial Admin­istrator’s Office (Vunisea)

Supervisor of Elections, Moham­med Saneem said the initiative is a bid to provide services in ar­eas where the FEO did not have Divisional Offices or Voter Services Centres.

“Fijians, voters or potential voters who wish to register or get their Vo­terCards replaced or, update their details can now visit any of these locations around the country to ac­cess Voter Services,” he said.

“We are making these services available now so that during elec­tion time, no one faces difficulties in accessing services.”

Acting Director Strategic Develop­ment and Communications Edwin Nand said Fijians will not have to travel far to access services as these office locations were closer to resi­dential locations.

“It was an opportune time for the FEO to take advantage of the exist­ing machinery to create an oppor­tunity within that machinery for Fijians to benefit from Voter Servic­es for the upcoming General Elec­tion whenever it may be held,” hesaid.
