Community leaders in Honiara are urging residents to stay alert today as the Motion of No Confidence (MONC) against Prime Minister Manele takes place. They are cautioning that political instability often creates an environment where criminals exploit the situation to carry out unlawful activities. Honiara has seen such criminal actions in the past, and leaders are emphasizing the importance of vigilance to ensure the safety of the city.
One community leader called on residents to stay informed through news outlets and the Royal Solomon Islands Police Force (RSIPF) Facebook page to monitor developments throughout the day. “It’s everyone’s responsibility to help the police maintain order and protect our community,” they said.
Another leader highlighted the added tension surrounding this particular MONC, noting that frustrations from recent issues such as the tint removal law, the unresolved 33 unpaid shipments, million dollars tax exemptions, the controversial Dodo Creek land sale, and increases in Police Clearance fees have left many people on edge. These unresolved political issues contribute to a more volatile atmosphere, making it essential for citizens to be extra cautious.
As the situation unfolds, the collaboration between the public and law enforcement remains important for ensuring Honiara’s safety and stability.
