I have Wikified this article as much as I was able. I think that the article still captures the facts while removing the POV statements. The article still requires verifiable sources to be considered for keeping. --Bugturd Talk 00:03, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced allegations[edit]

This is pretty strong stuff to not have a source:

"In 1994, the printing plant of the Samoa Observer burned down under suspicious circumstances. It was later revealed during the investigation of the assassination of Minister of Works Luagalau Levaula Kamu that Minister of Women's Affairs Leafa Vitale, a former Minister of Works, had arranged the burning of the printing plant. Before the burning of the printing plant, the paper had run a story linking Leafa to a scandal involving the sale of cattle, after which the then Minister of Works had threatened to kill Savea and his family. Also, he was assaulted by the minister's brothers."

It may well be true, but let's try to get a reliable source before it's re-added. Cheers, Khazar (talk) 18:49, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
