In his opening address President Waqa thanked God for “His hand and guidance in giving my Government another term in office to deliver the services that is good and prosperous to the people of Nauru.”
“In this second term of my Government, it is obvious that we have been given a clear mandate from the people to continue the good work that we started three years ago.
“Let us put outside our differences and let us work together to advance Nauru forward.
“As your President, I would like to personally extend an olive branch to all those who worked against me and my Government in the past. I know that it will not be easy for some but let bygones be bygones, and I pledge that I will work with those who chose to work with me and my Government,” President Waqa said.
Minister Adeang spoke on behalf of the cabinet ministers highlighting the rare privilege of having served in a single government for a full three year term.
“We had the enviable privilege also of governing Nauru under a rapidly growing economy.
“And over the weekend our people recognised and acknowledged the significant improvements we as a government made to their livelihoods and to their lifestyles by not just renewing our mandate to govern but by strengthening that mandate.
