Braddley Tovosia (born April 10, 1967 in Sukiki Village, Guadalcanal[2]) is a Solomon Islands politician.
He studied at Betikama College up to Form 5.[3]
His career in national politics began when he was elected to Parliament as the member for East Guadalcanal in the August 2010 general election, standing as an independent candidate. He was then appointed Minister for Provincial Government and Institutional Strengthening in Prime Minister Danny Philip's Cabinet.[4] [5] On January 22, in a Cabinet reshuffle prompted by the resignation of several ministers, Tovosia was promoted to the position of Minister for Forestry.[6] When Gordon Darcy Lilo replaced Philip as Prime Minister in November 2011, Tovosia was reshuffled to the Fisheries portfolio.[7]
