Fiji's acting president Ratu Epeli Nailatikau has been sworn in as head of state of the military-ruled Pacific nation. Nailatikau was sworn in today by Chief Justice Anthony Gates at Government House in the capital Suva in a ceremony attended by military officers, government officials and some diplomats. Nailatikau, a former army commander, was appointed as acting president after Ratu Josefa Iloilo retired at the end of July. President Nailatikau had been appointed vice president in April, a week after self-appointed Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama repealed the constitution, sacked the judiciary and introduced emergency regulations including press censorship. <br/> <br/>
