Saneem in a press conference this morning said elections officials should carry out their duties without fear or favour and in a very apolitical manner. He said election officials must remain honest at all times and ensure that all the procedures prescribed by the Fijian Elections Office are followed to the letter. “This was important as election officials determine the credibility of each election and it is very important that when you are carrying out this very important task,” he said. “Being an election official does not only mean that you are looking forward to the salary at the end of the day but this is a great service to the country. “When one is called upon to serve their country, they must do so with utmost faith and honesty. It is important that you ensure that you carry out your roles diligently. “Election officials must carry out their duties in a manner that is not only done but is seen by the members of the public to have been done right,” he said. Saneem said training sessions for election officials are being held at the Ba Holdings Conference Room in Lautoka and at the Labasa Scouts Hall in the north. Saneem said if the venues do change, they will be updated on the Fijian Elections Office Facebook page. By Nacanieli Tuilevuka
