PIKAU POKAU The death occurred recently of Pikau Pokau, chief of the Ngati Ruanui, and personal friend of the whole of the Taranaki people. He was the son of Maraea and Pokau Ngahina. Pikau Pokau worked for the benefit of both Maori and pakeha—socially and spiritually. He was the local warden, member of the rehabilition committee, president of the Ngati Ruanui Tahua under the Taranaki Maori Trust Board, president of the Taiporohenui Tennis Club and one of the trustees of the Taiporohenui, Manutahi, Waioturi and Whenuakura Pas. He is survived by his widow, Rangitutea, daughter of Tungatata Ratahi.
