Nuku says only one fibreglass boat is being used to transfer the villagers and their belongings.
Police have not been able to reach out due to raging floodwaters.
She says the villagers had evacuated to a church but water level kept rising, giving them no choice but to flee the village.
Nuku says the houses in the settlement are crowded but it’s important they help the villagers.
