Nauru has confirmed it will hold a referendum on changes to its constitution at the end of the month.

Among the choices for the island nation’s 21,000 residents, is removing some of the power of the country’s politicians.

The referendum will give Nauruans the choice to vote yes or no on four amendments to the country’s constitution, including giving themselves the right to vote for the country’s president, instead of MP’s deciding amongst themselves.

The referendum follows seven years of discussion and negotiation.
