It is understood Sovaleni and Lavemaau were dismissed effective from Friday, September 1 at 5pm.
Pōhiva was very disappointed with the ministers, the spokesperson said.
The Ministers were allegedly involved in a conspiracy which led to the king’s decision to dissolve the Parliament ordering fresh general election in November to replace the current MPs and cabinet.
Lord Maʻafu has been appointed the new Deputy Prime Minister while Hon. Poasi Tei took over Sovaleniʻs Minisitry of MEIDECC. Dr Pōhiva Tuʻiʻonetoa is the new Minister of Finance.
