North Bougainville MP Francesca Semoso delivers K30,000 to revive Buka Rugby League grand final
North Bougainville MP Francesca Semoso has handed the Buka Rugby League K30,000 to get its grand final back on the calendar. The competition had been struggling, and the showpiece match risked falling away without money behind it. League executives posed with the MP as the funds were delivered. Local rugby figures hope the injection keeps the code alive on Buka.
