List of Chairmen of the Great Council of Chiefs (Fiji)

The Great Council of Chiefs (Bose Levu Vakaturaga in Fijian) is a formal assembly of Fiji's senior hereditary chiefs, along with some representatives of the national government and provincial councils, who may or may not be hereditary chiefs themselves. It also has a constitutional role in functioning as an electoral college to choose the President of the Republic, as well as 14 of the 32 Senators.

This is a partial list of people who have served as Chairpersons of the Great Council of Chiefs:

  • Adi Samanunu Cakobau Talakuli (1994-1995)

Until 1999 the chairpersons were the ministers for Fijian affairs.
