Biman Prasad says despite irregularities in polling, the people of Fiji have spoken out in support of Frank Bainimarama and his Fiji First party.

However, Mr Prasad says the three NFP MPs will work hard to hold the government to account.

"People of Fiji have elected a government for the next four years. We respect the verdict of the people and wish Mr Voreqe Bainimarama well for the next four years. We expect nothing short of a transparent and accountable government and we will hold the new government to this principle."
