Te Ringa Mangu Netana "Dun" Mihaka (1942 – 22 August 2023) was a New Zealand Māori activist, author, and political candidate.
[5] Mihaka was involved in a number of campaigns regarding Māori rights, including the Bastion Point land dispute.
[7] Some sources claim this was actually directed at the Queen herself;[8][9] however, this is likely confused with a later incident in 1986 in which Mihaka was arrested for driving a van with an image of whakapohane in the vicinity of a royal motorcade.
[11][12] He then stood as an independent candidate for the Te Tai Tokerau electorate in the 1999 election, winning 1.03% of the vote.
Mihaka claimed that the drugs issue was of greater importance to Māori than the foreshore and seabed controversy, which Turia largely focused on.
