Foa your info, these kinds of action are common place from time immamorial...internal family rifts and egos have always been a factor in determining who gets or takes a title...the more prestigious or important a title is, the more challenges will be forthcoming. We rarely see the violence today, but when the disputes revert to anger...murder is the result. And of course with the Title(s) goes the duty of maintaining stewardship over the family inheritance of land and property...where there is great potential for personal gain if one is motivated by corruption & self-serving interests. Fa'anoanoa, you are not alone in your thoughts...fa'amalosi!
