- Chief «u»Niumataiwalu «/u» of «u»Lakeba «/u» sent emissaries to escort his cousin Vukinavanua to Lakeba. Vukinavanua felt too old and weak to undertake the «u»venture «/u» and instead sent the «i»katonisau«/i» («u»basket «/u» containing the Nayau «u»chiefly «/u» «u»regalia «/u») which remained with Niumataiwalu's branch. This gesture is significant as it suggests a symbolic «u»transference «/u» of Vukinavanua's rights to Niumatawalu's «u»family «/u». Vukinavanua was thus succeeded by Niumataiwalu's son, «u»Rasolo «/u»
