Mete Kīngi Te Rangi Paetahi (c. 1813 – 22 September 1883) was a Member of Parliament in New Zealand.

Mete Kīngi was the chief of the Ngāti Poutama (or Ngā Poutama) and Ngāti Tūmango hapu of Te Āti Haunui-a-Pāpārangi in the Whanganui River area.

[2] Mete Kīngi was the only candidate proposed at the nomination meeting for Western Maori, one of the new Māori electorates, at the Wanganui Courthouse in 1868,[3] and was thus elected unopposed.

He contested it again at the 1871 general election, but was defeated by Wiremu Parata, coming last of the three candidates.
