Naʻe taʻu 22 pē ʻa Siosefa Sāmita ʻi he taimi naʻá ne kamata liliu ai ʻa e Tohi ʻa Molomoná.

Ko e tokolahi ʻo e Kāingalotu ne kau ki he Siasí mo tufaki e ongoongoleleí ko ha kakai lalahi kei talavou.

ʻI he lea ʻa Palesiteni Lāsolo M.

Ko e ʻUhinga Kiate Kitautolu ʻa Hono Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e Ongoongoleleí

Ki ha tokolahi ʻo kitautolu, ʻoku tupu ʻetau kau ki hono Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e Ongoongoleleí mei he meʻa kuó ne akoʻi kiate kitautolú. Kia Venela Vakapeilí, ko ha taautaha kei talavou papi ului mei ʻAnitila Palatesi, ʻInitia, “ko e Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e Ongoongoleleí ʻoku fekauʻaki ia mo e fekumi ki ha fakahaá. Naʻe fekumi ʻa Siosefa Sāmita ki ha fakahā ʻi he vao ʻakaú. Naʻá ne fealēleaʻaki mo e ʻEikí, naʻá ne tatali ki he talí, pea naʻá ne faʻa kātaki. Ko e meʻa ia ʻoku ou saiʻia aí.” ʻOku pehē ʻe Venela, “Kimuʻa peá u fanongo fekauʻaki mo e Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e Ongoongoleleí, ne ʻikai lahi ʻeku ʻilo fekauʻaki mo e fekumi ki ha fakahaá. Ko e taha ʻo e ngaahi meʻa maʻongoʻonga taha ʻoku ou ofo aí ko e lahi e taimi naʻá ne fakamoleki ke maʻu ai ha fakahā mei he ʻOtuá. Ko e meʻa ia ne u ako mei hono Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e Ongoongoleleí.”

Naʻe poupou ʻa ʻEma mo Sēkope Lōpeti, ko ha ongomātuʻa kei talavou mei ʻIutā, USA, ko hono Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e Ongoongoleleí ʻoku fekauʻaki ia mo e “hokohoko atu e maʻu fakahaá”—maʻatautolu pea mo e māmaní—“ʻe lava ke tau maʻu ha palōfita, ko ha tangata lea ʻi heni he māmaní mei he ʻOtuá, ʻokú ne fakapapauʻi ʻe tatau ai pē ha ngaahi faingataʻa ʻoku ʻomi ʻe he māmaní, ʻoku tau maʻu ha tokotaha ʻoku ngāue mo lotu mo fefolofolai mo e ʻOtuá ke fakapapauʻi ʻoku tau mateuteu mo malava ʻo matatali ha faʻahinga faingataʻa pē ʻe ʻomi ʻe he māmaní ʻi heʻene feliliuakí.”

ʻOku pehē ʻe Sēkope, “ʻOku fakafaingofuaʻi mo siʻi ange ʻeku mafasiá koeʻuhí ko e ʻilo ʻoku ou maʻu fekauʻaki mo hono Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e Ongoongoleleí.” ʻOku haʻu kotoa ia mo ha fakapapau “ʻoku ʻi ai ha ʻOtua ʻokú Ne ʻofaʻi mo tokangaekina kitautolu.

Naʻe tokoni foki e faʻahinga fakapapau peheé kia Lamona Mōlisi, ko ha taautaha kei talavou mei Papeitosi, ʻi he taimi naʻá ne fuofua ako ai fekauʻaki mo hono Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e Ongoongoleleí. Makehe mei aí, naʻá ne maʻu ha fakamoʻoni ʻoku “ʻi ai ʻa e Tamai Hēvaní maʻatautolu. ʻOku ʻomi ʻe hono Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e Ongoongoleleí ha nonga kiate kinautolu ʻoku nau fifili ki he taumuʻa ʻo ʻenau moʻuí pea mo fehuʻia e palani ʻa e ʻOtuá maʻanautolú.”

Ka neongo kuo ʻomi ʻe he mahino ʻokú ne maʻu fekauʻaki mo hono Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e Ongoongoleleí ha nonga ki heʻene moʻuí, ʻokú ne pehē foki “ʻi heʻeku fuʻu mamaʻo mei he ngaahi ʻuluʻi ʻōfisi ʻo e Siasí, ʻoku faingataʻa ke fai ha fehokotaki mo e ongoongoleleí, ka koeʻuhí kuó u maʻu ha fakamoʻoni mālohi ki he ongoongolelei kuo toe fakafoki maí, ʻoku ou ʻiloʻi neongo ʻeku nofo mamaʻó, ka te u kei lava pē ʻo ongoʻi ʻoku ou kau ʻi hono Toe Fakafoki Mai ʻo e Ongoongoleleí, pea ʻoku ʻikai ke u tuenoa.”
