Dover Samuels says the best in this one

Posted on by
The nearly 86 year old Ex Labour MP, Maori affairs Minister Dover Samuels tells Laws : “Shane Jones called me to come to this hikoi in Kaikohe to wake up this bloody ngapuhi iwi to the atrocities happening to our kids, but no bugger wants to do anything about it especially Māori themselves. As far as ngapuhi leadership is converned I have no faith in the born again unelected kaumātuas. Shane and I tried to shake them up about the issue but they got offended. They are too busy talking about themselves and hikois for the treaty when nothing was going to bloody happen, meanwhile the murder of children is going on under our roofs, smoking P is the culture. Māori have no leadership and it’s only them who can fix this. What has John Tamihere and TPM ever done for our people? nothing”. Māori leadership. There is none. Māori in leadership roles have continually been a failure over and over again. More concerned about grifting and causing division. Where is the introspection ? Where is courage and truth speaking ? Nah it’s all Marxist mumbo jumbo, while these self anointed faux Māori leaders hitch themselves to the radical gravy train. So here we have this catastrophic failure of culture, of leadership and yet the Govt is hell bent on adopting the “so called Māori approach” to everything. I’m sorry but the Māori approach is one of failure and murdered kids. Stick it up your ass. I am of ngapuhi descent, my grandmother married Dover Samuel’s mums brother, I know that area, and it’s a write off. Gangs, drugs and violence. It’s the pits. Mana Tahere twice backed out of an interview with Laws. He has has been anointed as some kind of ‘leader’ for Ngapuhi and apparently has a masters in indigenous leadership – the 38 year old also serves as an ‘equity’ expert on a health board in Northland. I think we can see where the problem is right there, he’s no leader. I 100% agree with Dover Samuels and with Michael Laws when he says – “I’m over this too many Māori children are dying, too many Māori have drug and violence issues, there is no Māori leadership” Catalya Remana Tangimetua Pepene tragically WILL NOT be the last Māori child murdered by her own family, she is just the latest statistic while the so called “Māori leadership” trumpet ‘dEcOlonIzAT10n’ and blame everyone else but them bloody selves, take responsibility and address this toxic mess that modern Māori culture now represents.
