Fiji MP Lynda Tabuya dismissed after leaked naked video surfaces

A video of Fiji MP Lynda Tabuya dancing naked was leaked, leading to her dismissal from the Cabinet by Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka on December 26. Tabuya claims the video was hacked from her stolen phone and has filed a police complaint. The leak has sparked public backlash and accusations of cyberbullying. Rabuka stated the dismissal was in the public's best interest, citing constitutional standards for ministers. Tabuya remains an MP while a party subcommittee reviews her case. Rabuka's decision has faced criticism for being misogynistic, which he denies. Tabuya described the incident as gender-based violence and emphasized the need for accountability for such actions. Rabuka has appointed Sashi Kiran as her replacement.
