Mr Tuati Paku Whaanga The death occurred recently of Mr Tuati Paku Whaanga, son of Ihaka Maihi Whaanga, a leader of the Nuhaka people and a grandson of Ihaka (Tatoo) Whaanga, a direct male descendant of Kahungunu. Tuati Paku Whaanga was born at Nuhaka 70 years ago and resided in the district all his life. He farmed a property south of the township and left with the 2nd Maori Contingent for the First World War.
