If I understand what you are trying for, the canonical way (i.e. the one I 
planned for) to express the above is:
lu'i .abuboi xi veimo'e .ibu poi cmima tau .ibu

Alternatively, you need an operator for membership:
lu'i .abuboi xi vei .ibu na'u cmima tau .ibu
or
li'i .abuboi xi vei .ibu ma'o cmima.bu boi tau .ibu
