THE Hon. Prime Minister of Tonga has suffered a mild stroke in New York.

The Acting Prime Minister, Lord Ma’afu confirms this in Parliament this morning.

He says a doctor in New York confirmed that Lord Tu’ivakano is in a stable condition.

Lord Ma’afu also calls on MPs to remember Lord Tu’ivakano in their prayers so he could return home and continue his role as the Prime Minister of Tonga.

Parliament News understands the Prime Minister spoke last Saturday at the 67th session of United Nation’s General Debate in New York.
