Uluilakeba I

Uluilakeba I

Uluilakeba I was the second child and eldest son of Niumataiwalu. He succeeded to his fathers title, becoming the second Roko Sau and High Chief of the Lau Islands, upon the latter’s death in Ono-i-Lau. He was the progenitor of the senior and eldest of the four noble households in the Vuanirewa clan called Naivi. His rule was marked with instability, due to internal conflict within the Vuanirewa clan and expanding ambitions of Bau. His younger brothers, Rasolo, Matawalu and Lubati and the rest of family were exiled to Nayau. Uluilakeba I was eventually slain in battle by the invading Bauan forces.
