Ratu Vukinavanua 3rd Tui Nayau [66284] ¹¹⁸⁴²

  General Notes:

After Maseikula died, Vukinavanua became the ruler of Nayau.
He had at least one wife and three children - Lady Lebaidrani, Lady Cabata and Prince Ravonoloa.
Chief Niumataiwalu of Lakeba sent emissaries to escort his cousin Vukinavanua to Lakeba. Vukinavanua felt too old and weak to undertake the venture and instead sent the katonisau (basket containing the Nayau chiefly regalia ) which remained with Niumataiwalu's branch. This gesture is significant as it suggests a symbolic transference of Vukinavanua's rights to Niumatawalu's family . Vukinavanua was thus succeeded by Niumataiwalu's son, Rasolo
