"Humbled and honoured."
Summarised by Centrist
Gisborne Deputy Mayor Josh Wharehinga will not seek re-election in 2025 after four terms. Reflecting on 11 years of service, he said he is “humbled and honoured” to have represented his community. Wharehinga plans to focus on his family, businesses, and reviving the East Coast boxing scene. A transformative leader, he leaves a legacy of advocating for Māori representation and the Kaiti master plan.
