A nice seaward location, and a tribute to a talented Nuiean family.
The Mitikalena family are quite unique. Dad was a doctor, and their two sons Allen and Alvin and daughter, Adrienne (Ani) are all general practitioners in New Zealand. The Mitukalena Family lived in Avatele before heading to Wellington. Avatele has also produced its fair share of prominent Niueans past and present, including Niue's late inaugural Premier Sir Robert Rex, his late brother and long-serving Senior Advisor to Government Leslie Rex OBE, the late Rev. Ikiua Lupo first President of the Ekalesia Kerisiano Niue, the late Takelesi Lagaluga first Niuean Head of a Government Deapartment & his son Hon. Himalea Takelesi Niue's first High Commissioner to New Zealand and former Member of Parliament. Renown All Black, Frank Bunce is also descended from the village, and is the nephew of both Sir Robert Rex and Rev. Ikiua Lupo. The current Premier, the Rt Hon. Billy Graham Talagi, has been the Avatele Representative MP since 1999.
