The LPV announced its decision after lengthy consultations with party colleagues and constituents.
Napat said he and his colleagues also met with the Prime Minister to learn why he and former Minister Matai Seremaiah were terminated from their positions.
‘We met with the prime minister for over an hour and he expressed his regret over our terminations”, Napat said.
“The PM told us it was not his choice or wish to terminate us yet some members of his government felt it was in their interests to do so in order to try to hold their seats in 2020.
