Rapunga Kupu Akoako: (korero taken from "NZ History")
Hone Heke Ngapua: attended native schools and St Stephen's
school in Parnell, Auckland. He later worked as a clerk in an
Auckland law firm. In the 1880s he became involved in the
Kotahitanga movement. This aimed for Maori control over Maori
lands and a degree of local self-government through a Maori
Hone Heke Ngapua
Parliament.
In 1893, while only in his early 20s, Hone Heke addressed the Kotahitanga Parliament.
He showed a sophisticated understanding of the Kotahitanga concept, and skilfully
expressed the key issues facing Maori.
Through his obvious ability and skills as a speaker he was elected to the House of
Representatives later in 1893, representing Northern Maori. In 1894 he introduced the
Native Rights Bill. It sought a constitution for Maori, implementation of the Treaty of
Waitangi, and a separate Maori Parliament. Although supported by many tribes, the bill
was not passed. But it influenced some later legislation, in particular the Maori Councils
Act 1900.

In 1898 a number of Maori residents of the Waima Valley, Hokianga, began a protest led
by Hone Toia. They refused to pay the dog tax and other taxes imposed by the
government and local bodies. The government sent out troops, and an armed conflict
threatened to break out. However, Hone Heke stepped in to prevent bloodshed, and Toia
and his men laid down their weapons and surrendered. Although on the surface this
incident was about rates and taxation it was, on a deeper level, one of the final challenges
to Crown sovereignty.

Hone Heke remained a tireless supporter of the Kotahitanga movement until his early
death of tuberculosis, at the age of 40, in 1909.
