Opposition plans to move motion of no confidence
THE Opposition plans to move a motion of no confidence against Prime Minister Peter O’Neill’s Government in Parliament next week “to steer the country out of the cliff”, leader Don Polye says.
Polye called a press conference at Parliament House yesterday with Vanimo-Green MP Belden Namah, Bulolo MP Sam Basil, Kikori MP Mark Maipakai, Lagai-Porgera MP Nixon Mangape and Goilala MP William Samb.
“We have the numbers, the Opposition has numbers. We need to steer this country out of the cliff,” he said. “We (Opposition) don’t have any credibility issues, we have been prudent and we have records that will prove to the people of this nation.
“This team will offload 10.1 per cent shares, cut down unnecessary expenditures, retire some of those bad loans that are in process, and we will do the rationalisation of expenditure and mobilise resources to have the money to spend on those real priorities to growth. The current government is doing all kinds of things damaging and detrimental to the country’s economy.”
Namah said their only objective “is to save this country”.
“We are not removing the ministers, we are removing one person – Peter O’Neill,” he said.
Basil said:“If a new government comes into play, they will switch into a damage control mode. They won’t enjoy the privileges of putting up new projects here and there.
“We have to save this country, it has already been damaged.”
