Nayau — the island where chiefs were born, culture runs deep, and the spirit of the vanua still breathes. A legacy of power, pride, and identity.

The Living Shield of the Turaga na Tui Nayau

The installation of the Turaga na Tui Nayau, Sau ni Vanua o Lau, Tui Lau, was more than a ceremony — it was the unfolding of ancient iTovo (tradition) in modern times. It was a reminder that, though the world has changed, the heart of the vanua (land/community) still beats strong.

As the ceremonial events played out in the Raratabu under the sun, before Turaga (chiefs) and commoners, under the watchful eyes of the Vanua — we witnessed the Bati of Yadrana from the Yavusa Drekeivuci rise to their place, as they have done for generations.

These were not just men dressed in voivoi somo (pandanus leaves dyed black) and war paint. These were the living shield of the Turaga, a sacred duty passed down through bloodlines, forged in loyalty and service. The Bati stood not for show, but to honour a role that stretches back to the days when wars were fought with clubs, and chiefly authority was protected by flesh and bone.

Today, this is often seen as just drama — constrained by human rights and government laws. But before, this was the real deal. To be accurate, those dramatizing the Bati role today come from the original Drekeivuci clan of Yadrana — those who carry the killer instinct blood running fiercely through their veins, ready to protect their Turaga at any cost.

This drama — this powerful display of protocol, order, and identity is not just about one man ascending a chiefly seat. It is about how we, as iTaukei (indigenous Fijians), carry roles given to us by our ancestors, roles that define us, unite us, and call us to serve something bigger than ourselves: the vanua.

Today, the world saw what Fiji once was — and still is — in moments like this. This was not just a ceremony. It was a glimpse into the Fiji of the war days. A Fiji of roles, of honour, of structure. A Fiji of Bati, Turaga, and Vanua.
