Well-known Naitasiri residents include Ratu Inoke Takiveikata, the Qaranivalu (Paramount Chief) of Naitasiri District and a former Cabinet Minister and Senator, who is now serving a life-sentence for his role in a mutiny connected with the Fiji coup of 2000, also Jone Naqica, who plays rugby for the US national rugby team.
