Political Digest of Nauru

AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Parliament: Naoero’s 19 MPs have all joined President David Adeang’s government, leaving the country without a formal opposition for the first time since independence in 1968. Adeang says lawmakers will still debate policy, but the shift raises questions about who will scrutinise the government. The change was announced on government social media; all local news outlets are government-owned, and foreign journalists face steep visa costs. Energy: A regional clean-energy platform says a 20-year solar-and-battery agreement will replace Naoero’s diesel generation with no upfront cost to the country, part of a wider push to cut Pacific reliance on imported fuel.
