Former headmaster of Delena Primary School, James Aihi has expressed concerns saying that the village council must act fast to mitigate the issue or the sea will continue to wash away foundations.
“I have been on the field for almost 40 years and I just retired in 2016. It is my fourth year at home and through my observation, I believe that our people are suffering due to global warming and climate change. The sea has almost washed up the whole village, only have a few houses remain around 13 or 14 houses just near the beach.”
