Netane Nimo died after his car allegedly collided with another car on Taufa’āhau Road.

The cause of the crash remains unclear and it’s unknown if anyone else was injured in the collision.

A tribute which had been paid to Nimo on social media had described him as a man who had a “welcoming smile.”

He was also described as a “familiar face” to many school friends who went together with him to the University of the South Pacific (USP).

“Nothing but love for you my brother and you will forever be remembered and missed”, a friend wrote on Facebook.

“Were still in shock”, another wrote.

Sometimes when a business is growing, it needs a little help.

Right now Kaniva News provides a free, politically independent, bilingual news service for readers around the world that is absolutely unique. We are the largest New Zealand-based Tongan news service, and our stories reach Tongans  wherever they are round the world. But as we grow, there are increased demands on Kaniva News for translation into Tongan on our social media accounts and for the costs associated with expansion. We believe it is important for Tongans to have their own voice and for Tongans to preserve their language, customs and heritage. That is something to which we are strongly committed. That’s why we are asking you to consider sponsoring our work and helping to preserve a uniquely Tongan point of view for our readers and listeners.
