AKE AKE AKE

Forever, and evermore.

This is a proclamation to state forever and evermore, or as long as it takes. More commonly you hear these words at the end of a karakia as an affirmation of unity and solidarity. 

During the peaceful movement of Ihumatao in Tāmaki Makaurau this saying became infamous as a statement of protection against the development of the unique landscape. These kupu symbolise resilience, strength and determination. 

Kupu hou:

whakatauki = proverb

kīwaha = colloquial saying, slang

tūpuna = ancestors

Te Moana-nui-a-Kiwa = Pacific Ocean

taonga = precious, treasured, of great value
