IN the wake of Tropical Cyclone Yasa’s devastating assault in Bua, the villagers of Nadivakarua in the district of Kubulau were left wondering about what to eat in the months ahead.
With wind gusts reaching a maximum speed of 260km per hour, everything that the men of the village had planted to feed the family with and earns a livelihood from was virtually lost.
Now they’ve rebuilt their farms and reshaped their lives.
The village chief, Ratu Peni Sigare, is anxious worried about his people’s source of livelihood.
