PM Marape bans Provincial Days
PNG Prime Minister James Marape said the provincial days must be done away with because it undermines national unity.
And it is eroding national affiliation and is segregating people that at times resulted in law and order issues along regional and provincial lines.
Mr. Marape highlighted this when expressing his disappointment in the observance of provincial days in NCD and other centers.
He said affiliation to the country must take precedence, and provincial days must be removed.
Marape said if people want to celebrate their provincial days, they should take it back to their own provinces.
Mr. Marape was responding to Central Governor Robert Agarobe’s question on violence based on regionalism or provincialism which comes from the continued hosting of provincial days in NCD.
