Narkish Chand, a taxidriver in Suva, has turned to driving his taxi from the Sawani border in Naitasiri to support his family.
The 57-year-old said after spending two weeks at home because of containment areas, he decided to drive from the Sawani border.
“I live in the Nausori containment zone with my family so I couldn’t go to drive taxi from my base which is in Suva,” he said.
“The income from the taxi was the only way for me to feed my family and for the past two weeks I have been staying at home because I couldn’t drive from another base in Nausori.”
