Former PMs join in call for PM to resign
I have joined with my fellow Prime Ministers Sir Michael Somare and Sir Julius Chan, with a message of support from former PM Paias Wingti, to call on Peter O’Neill to resign immediately and submit himself to the due processes of the law. He should do this before Parliament sits on Friday to vote on a motion of no confidence. If Mr O’Neill does not resign, we call on all Members of Parliament to put the nation first by supporting an alternative Prime Minister. Mr O’Neill is n
Why Prime Minister O'Neill must resign
This Statement of Reasons accompanies the media release above, Former PMs join in call for PM to resign. WHY PRIME MINISTER O’NEILL MUST RESIGN

Time for rescue and national leadership change
Today Papua New Guinea is at a turning point. On the one hand we can choose to start afresh with new leadership, new vision and new hope for the future. Or we can continue down an uncertain, slippery road, led by a person who is increasingly behaving like a dictator, with total disregard for the law.
