Monte Ohia

It’s sad to learn of the sudden death of Monte Ohia, the Maori Party candidate for Te Tai Tonga.

Ohia was a prominent educationalist and would have been an enourmous asset as an MP. He had been tipped to pose a major challenge this election to Labour’s Mahara Okeroa, to whom he polled a respectable second in 2005.

Our thoughts are with his family.
