The Native Lands Commission has not received anything from the Vanua regarding plans to install the new Vunivalu, the head of Kubuna confederacy.
Native Lands Commission (NLC) chairman Ratu Viliame Tagivetaua said the commission heard that discussions are currently underway amongst the members of the tokatoka Vunivalu and Mataqali Tui Kaba, but nothing has come to his office.
Tagivetaua said NLC will only facilitate the discussions if the request comes from the Tailevu Provincial Council and no one else.
The Tunitoga who is the Vunivalu's traditional spokesman, Ratu Veiwili Komaitai said two meetings have already been held with the members of the tokatoka. He said they had cordial discussions on the matter and he is expecting to call another meeting soon.
The 5 likely contenders for the title are Ratu George Kadavulevu, Ratu Joji Cakobau, Ratu Epenisa Cakobau, Adi Samanunu Talakuli Cakobau and Interim Foreign Affairs Minister, Ratu Epeli Nailatikau. Ratu Epeli Nailatikau's great grandmother was Ratu Seru Cakobau's sister. Ratu Seru was the self proclaimed King of Fiji and he ceded Fiji to Great Britain in 1874.
