Kīngi Matutaera Ihaka 1921-1993, Te Aupouri

Ko tētahi atu kaipāho reo Māori ko te Minita o te Hāhi Mihinare, a Kīngi Matutaera Īhaka (1921-1993, Te Aupouri). He kaiwhakamāori anō ia pērā i a Kēpa Ehau, e mahi ana ia i ngā pāriha o te Upoko o te Ika. Ka toro hoki atu ia ki ngā whare pāpāho o Pōneke, ka mau ana hōtaka pēnei i tēnei tauira i whakahōtakatia i te tau 1954: he whakataukī Māori te kaupapa. 

I muri atu ka puta tana reo ki te hōtaka reo Pākehā o Wiremu Parker e kī ana ko “Māori Programme,” nō te tau 1966 ka tohua ia ki te komiti tohutohu o te Kaporeihana Pāpāho. I tana tūnga hei Ātikona, ka rongo haere tana reo i a ia e kauwhau ana ki ngā hui me ngā karakiatanga, ā, aru tonu atu ngā kaipāho i a ia ki te rapu i ana whakaaro mō ngā take o te wā.
