Ko ngā Mema Pāremata Māori tuatahi Mete Kīngi Te Rangi Paetahi (3 o 3)

First Māori MPs: Mete Kīngi Te Rangi Paetahi

Ko Mete Kīngi Te Rangi Paetahi te rangatira o Te Āti Haunui-a-Pāpārangi nō te rohe o Te Whanganui. I whakahē ia i te Kīngitanga, ā, i te tau 1864 i hautū ia i ngā haumi Māori o te kāwanatanga i roto i te pakanga ki Moutoa. I roto i ngā whawhai o ngā pakanga o Aotearoa i mōhiotia ia ki te ingoa Tianara Mete Kīngi. I pōtitia ia hei mema pāremata tuatahi mō te tūru Māori ki te Hauāuru i te tau 1868. I te tau 1881 i whai wāhi ki te whakapirara i te nuinga o ngā kainoho o Parihaka.
