Kia ora tātou. A very special episode tonight of Nā Wai i Teka. Two episodes - 1 and a half hour of long form content. Two panels. Up first, taitamariki from Te Taitokerau who participated in the hīkoi from start to end. Haramai. Followed by our normal programme. Reflections on the hīkoi, and where to from here, from a uniquely Taitokerau perspective.
