Fiji powerhouse Josua Tuisova

As Fijians around the world continue to celebrate our first ever Olympic Gold medal win, Josua Tuisova’s parents are over the moon as they will be travelling with their son to France.

Tuisova’s father, Sikeli Ratulevu told Fijivillage that this is a dream come true for him as he will be travelling on an airplane for the first time.

Ratulevu says Tuisova has arranged for their three months visit where they will also meet up with Tuisova’s brother Filipo Nakosi who is playing for Agen.

Tuisova was outstanding during the Olympics, scoring some brilliant tries which was the highlight of the Olympics 7s tournament.

Ratulevu says they will be waiting at the Nadi International Airport on Sunday and will be attending both celebrations in Nadi and Suva.

Tuisova will be traveling to France on the 29th of this month with his parents and Pio Tuwai’s younger daughter.

The village of Votua will have a major celebration for Tuisova next Friday.
