Solution

The correct option is B Indian Fijian

In Fiji, the electoral system is such that the vote of an indigenous Fiji has more value than that of an Indian-Fijian because following two military coups in 1987, the national constituencies were abolished under pressure from Fijian ethnic-nationalists, who opposed allowing non-indigenous electors to vote for indigenous Fijian representatives.
