Nanaia Mahuta Puts Hand Up for Leadership Challenge

Nanaia Mahuta Puts Hand Up for Leadership Challenge

“After serious consideration I have decided to put my name forward as a leadership candidate for the New Zealand Labour Party” said MP for Hauraki-Waikato Nanaia Mahuta.

“This decision has been made with the knowledge that as the Party reviews the election outcome, we can learn from the base of support that was demonstrated across the Māori electorates, in South Auckland and amongst Pasifika and ethnic communities”
“There is a need for our Party to reconnect with more people in their communities, and the leadership contest will be a way to commence that effort.

“I look forward to meeting members during this period and thank supporters for their encouragement”
