Supporters joined on foot and horseback flooding the streets and temporarily closing Fenton Street. Waiata and haka were performed throughout the hikoi as it made its way to Te Puia. As Taiha Molyneux reports, while parliament voted to suspend Te Pati Maori MP Hana Rawhiti Maipi Clarke for leading a haka in the house, hikoi participants celebrated the move.
