Kua hinga te tōtara o Te Waonui-a-Tāne

It is with profound sadness that we acknowledge the passing of Kiingi Tūheitia Potatau Te Wherowhero VII, a significant pillar for Te iwi Māori. We extend our deepest aroha to the bereaved whānau and all those affected during this time of sorrow. Kīingi Tūheitia was at the forefront of kaupapa Māori, representing Te Ao Māori with mana and humility. Kīingi Tūheitia was a beacon of leadership and strength, guiding with wisdom and compassion. His legacy will continue to inspire us in our mahi with mana whenua, Māori, and tauiwi communities.

E te Kiingi Tūheitia Pootatau Te Wherowhero tuawhitu kia au tō moe.

Moe mārire mai koe e te Kiingi Māori Tūheitia. Hoki atu koe ki te torona o Īhoa o ngā manō, māna koe e tiaki e manaaki mō ake tonu atu. Pai mārire.
