To run or not to run?

There is growing interest in the outcome of media personality Charlie Rani’s political ambitions.
It’s now a case of will he or will he not run for parliament? Just back from attending a large gathering in Mitiaro last weekend, Rani is keeping a low profile and saying little. The sitting MP, Demo Tangata Vavia, was at the same gathering in Mitiaro and must have been watching Rani like a hawk. Noting whose hands he was shaking and who he was talking to.
While many may question Mangaian Rani’s affiliation to Mitiaro, its known Rani has enough family connections to Mitiaro to give any would be detractors cause to be concerned.
