Mataʻiʻulua ‘i Fonuamotu, Lord Fusituʻa, is a Tongan politician and noble of the Realm.
He was bestowed with the title Fusituʻa, one of the thirty-three hereditary titles of the Tongan nobility, on 6 May 2014, following the death of the previous title-holder (his father) on 24 April.[1] His father had also been one of the nine representatives of the nobility in the Legislative Assembly of Tonga, sitting for the nobles' constituency of the Niuas islands. His death led to a by-election on 21 May, whereby the nobles in the Niuas elected the new Lord Fusituʻa as their representative to Parliament.[1]
