Eileen Cikamatana was part of the Levuka weightlifting community that has now split away from Weightlifting Fiji claiming the national body has mistreated and bullied their athletes.
Last week the breakaway Fiji Weightlifters Association, which has no international affiliation, was created in response to their grievances not being addressed.
Cikamatana said Weightlifting Fiji had tried to force athletes to return to Fiji to train and hired an international coach against their wishes.
