On Monday 17th March, the Bukani mataqali met at Laqere to collect the traditional items required for presentation and an 'envelope' for aunty Litia's reguregu which was held at Nepani, the home of her (late) first husband, unlce Tavite and children. Aunty Litia died suddenly on Thursday 13th March after a short time in hospital. We understand that she had throat cancer, but her death may have been related to diabetes. It was with much sadness that we gathered and then made our way down to Nepani. Aunty Litia was buried at the Nasinu cemetery and is survived by her husband, Kali and her children, Alena, Toni, Ilaisa and Odila.
