It is understood that a Kiingitanga delegation could arrive at Ihumātao today. Te Ao Māori News reached out to Rahui Papa, spokesperson for the Kiingitanga, however he declined to comment. SOUL leader Pania Newton could neither confirm, or deny the rumours, stating: “Kare anō mātou kua rongo mai te Kiingitanga mēnā kei te tae mai rātou i ngā rā tata nei.” “We have not heard from the Kiingitanga if they are coming in the coming days.” If the Kiingitanga does send a delegation, then it could be a sign that a deal about the future of Ihumātao is coming.
