Governor of East Sepik Province Hon. Allan Bird has filed and served a Section 18 Supreme Court application challenging the Marape Government's amendments to Section 145 (5) of the Constitution, and question its constitutionality, in an effort to protect the integrity of the Constitution and the principles of democracy.

Governor of East Sepik Province Hon. Allan Bird has filed and served a Section 18 Supreme Court application challenging the Marape Government's amendments to Section 145 (5) of the Constitution, and question its constitutionality, in an effort to protect the integrity of the Constitution and the principles of democracy. In March 2025 Marape Government bulldozed the final reading of Constitutional Amendment to section 145 of Constitution. This amendment introduced an additional 18-month grace period, preventing Members of Parliament from moving a vote of no confidence against the Prime Minister following an unsuccessful motion of no confidence. If next week’s vote of no confidence fails, the amendment would immediately take effect, blocking any further motions against Prime Minister Marape for 18 monthsβ€”effectively shielding him from challenge until the 2027 General Election. Bird is challenging the amendment in the Supreme Court on the grounds its unconstitutional and be struck do...

James Nomane’s Call to Save PNG

A Call to Rethinking Leadership in Papua New Guinea After the recent Vote of No Confidence, the Marape administration remains in power. Now is the time for us to think about how our country is being led and what we want for our future. The recent events remind us that we must pay attention to our leaders and their actions. Many of us feel frustrated with how the Marape government has been running things. We see that political interests often come before the well-being of our people. We must ask ourselves: Are we okay with this? Should we accept a government that lets important services fall apart and ignores the needs of our communities? Even though the Vote of No Confidence has ended, our call for change and accountability is still strong. The voices of the people need to be heard, and we must have a government that listens and takes action. Being a good citizen means we must participate not only during elections but every day. The situation in our country is still serious. If we bec...

Governor Allan Bird Demands Marape's Removal

Governor Allan Bird Demands Marape's Removal Allan Bird, the governor of East Sepik, is speaking out against how Papua New Guinea (PNG) is being run. He's not happy with Prime Minister James Marape and wants things to change. Allan Bird is becoming a big voice in the opposition party. He's known for being honest and talking about the problems people care about, like bad government and lack of honesty. He says people are tired of the government's decisions. One of the things Allan Bird is criticizing is the Connect PNG program. This program is supposed to improve roads and other infrastructure across the country. But Allan Bird says the money isn't being used properly. He wants to know where the money is going and if it's really helping people. This raises questions about whether the government is being honest about how it spends money. Allan Bird's speech has started a big discussion about who should be leading PNG and how the country should be run. He...

Is PNG Sinking Under Marape? The Call for Leadership Change Grows Louder

Is PNG Sinking Under Marape? The Call for Leadership Change Grows Louder When a nation’s hospitals collapse, youth remain jobless, and foreign investors flee β€” we must ask: Is this the leadership Papua New Guinea deserves? For six years, Prime Minister James Marape and the PANGU-led government have promised change, development, and prosperity. Yet the reality on the ground is devastatingly clear: deteriorating roads, empty medical stores, unpaid provincial grants, and a frustrated generation of unemployed youth. Despite record-breaking K27 billion budgets, where is the progress? The Opposition's call for Marape’s resignation is not just a political play β€” it's an echo of the people’s growing despair. Even long-standing businesses like Fletcher Morobe are leaving after 70 years, waving a red flag that the world is watching β€” and walking away. The East Sepik Governor’s revelation that doctors are paying for medicine from their own pockets while over K1 billion i...

Is Papua New Guinea on the Brink of a Military Coup? The Silence Before the Storm

Is Papua New Guinea on the Brink of a Military Coup? The Silence Before the Storm Something is boiling beneath the surface in Papua New Guineaβ€”and it’s not just frustration, it’s fury. Soldiers, once fed with honor and duty, now sit hungry in barracks while politicians dine lavishly on public funds. Think about it: K42 million in unpaid catering bills. No food for our defense forces. Black Wednesday already showed us what a simple pay cut can trigger in the police. What happens when soldiersβ€”hungry, disrespected, and ignoredβ€”are pushed to the edge? While the government flies in and out, pockets full of perks, the boots on the ground are being starved, literally. How long before they snap? How long before that silence in the barracks breaks into something history will remember forever? The call for a military coup may sound extremeβ€”but is it, really, when the government is starving its protectors while offering million-kina contracts to cronies? Where is the justice? Where i...

WAKE UP PNG - PMJM IS A WOLF IN SHEEP'S SKIN

Post by Youths Organisation  PNG WAKE UP – THE TRUTH YOU MUST FACE Fellow Papua New Guineans, let’s stop fooling ourselves. It’s time we strip away the lies and see what’s really happening. James Marape’s β€œTake Back PNG” is a sick joke. A complete con. A national disgrace. Since taking office, Marape preached change, progress, accountability, and all things β€œChristian.” He called for a new dawn β€” claiming PNG would become the β€œRichest Black Christian Nation.” But look around β€” has anything changed? The answer is a LOUD, RESOUNDING NO. Instead of cleaning up corruption, he’s feeding it. Instead of building a fair government, he’s running it like a family trade store β€” handing out top government jobs like candy to his cronies and wantoks. Take a closer look: He made his election manager, John Akipe, the Secretary for Defence, ignoring qualified Papua New Guineans. He gave his own brother, Larson Marape, a contract role in the PNG Defence Force, side-lining experienced professionals. ...
