Koeʻuhí ke tokoni ke mahino lelei ange ki he kau akó ʻa e ngaahi tokāteline mo e ngaahi tefitoʻi moʻoni ʻi he ʻuluaki lēsoni ʻe tolu ʻo e ngāue fakafaifekaú, ʻoku akoʻi ʻe he kalasi ko ʻení ʻa e lēsoní takitaha ʻi ha ongo kalasi taki miniti ʻe 90.

Fakamatalaʻi ki he kau akó ko e taha ʻo e ngaahi founga mahuʻinga ʻoku fakahaaʻi ai ʻe he ʻOtuá ʻEne ʻofa ʻiate kitautolú ko hono uiuiʻi ʻa e kau palōfitá. Fakaʻaliʻali ʻa e lea ko ʻeni naʻe fai ʻe ʻEletā M.
