The government of Sogavare is illegitimate

 The Crooked Prime Minister

In 2019, Sogavare was elected as an independent. He didn't have a party that commands the majority of the elected MPs. He didn't have any leg to stand on in terms of party numbers or affiliations. During the negotiation process, Sogavare rounded up Independent MPs and formed a large party in violation of the law. The unethical move granted Sogavare the majority party that required to lead the coalition of parties to form the government. He was able to establish a majority of the coalition and became a clear contender for the office of the Prime Minister. 

Illegal maneuvers

The other camp led by Peter Kenilorea and Matthew Wale apparently saw Sogavare's maneuvers as an illegal tactic that needed to be addressed by the courts immediately. As such, they sued for the court, as they should, to redress the constitutional impasse. Unfortunately, the judge ruled in favour of Sogavare on a technicality. This doesn't mean the Sogavare's moves were legal. 
And though he became prime minister, what he did was unethical and illegal. He'd managed to lead some of the dumbest MPs to join him in creating the ruling coalition. He needed to be tried and his coalition dismantle for violating the country's own Integrity Law.

This Blog is about Manasseh Sogavare

 Welcome,  This blog documents the history of Sogavare and his controversial dealings since entering politics in 1997. Mr. Sogavare is the only prime minister in the history of Solomon Islands to hold the office of Prime Minister in four different terms - 2000, 2006, 2014, and 2019 - to current.  In his first three stints, Sogavare was marred by controversies and eventually voted out of office. He became the most revered and feared politicians in Solomon Islands. He was also the first PM to take on Australia after the election of 2006 - kicking out the Australian Higher Commission to SI, and appointed a sex offender as Attorney General of SI in defiance of protestation of the 'Civil Society' and the regional partners. 

Sogavare lied to the world

 SOGAVARE LIED AT THE UNGA The Prime Minister of SI spoke at the United Nations General Assembly, attacking two important key issues he believes that are hurting his government and SI.  First, he went after what he called an effort on 'Social Media' to spread disinformation about his 'China – SI' security pact, which he signed earlier this year. In it, Sogavare claimed that most of the things said about him and his new friends, the Chinese Communist Party, were done deliberately to mislead his country and the world. As a result of that, he said the misleading information led to riots and looting, as we'd seen at the end of 2021.  Secondly, Sogavare attacked – indirectly – Australia and its allies such as the US and Britain. Choosing a foreign partner is the right of a sovereign, independent state. He argued that his government's partnership with the Chinese government is solely for the interest of the country, and decried any perception that SI was becoming an a...
