The Royal Solomon Islands Police Force (RSIPF) bid farewell to the late Inspector Eddie Peseika during a send-off service held at the SSEC Church on 13 February, following his untimely passing on 7 February 2026 at the National Referral Hospital in Honiara.

Acting Commissioner Mathias Lenialu said, “Late Inspector Peseika’s sudden passing is a significant loss to the RSIPF, his family, his community, and the nation he faithfully served.”

With more than eighteen (18) years of service, he displays the core values of commitment, sacrifice, integrity, and professionalism that define the RSIPF.

“Joining the RSIPF as a recruit, Inspector Peseika steadily rose through the ranks to become an Inspector, demonstrating perseverance, loyalty, and an unwavering readiness to serve wherever duty called,” Commissioner Lenialu adds.

“Throughout his career, he actively pursued professional development through continuous training, reflecting his commitment to growth and excellence in policing. His service embodied the RSIPF motto, “To Serve and Protect,” and his contributions strengthened both the organization and the communities it safeguards.”

Inspector Peseika will be remembered as a dedicated officer, a respected colleague, and a leader whose work contributed meaningfully to the safety and security of our nation.

Inspector Eddie Peseika’s legacy of dedicated service and commitment to duty will remain an enduring example to all members of the Force. His contribution to the RSIPF and to the nation will not be forgotten.

“On behalf of the RSIPF Executive and all ranks and files across the country, we extend our deepest condolences to Mrs. Martha Peseika, their children, and relatives during this time of sorrow. The RSIPF family stands united in grief and solidarity with them,” said Police Commissioner.
