David Farrar: Friend of Nikki Kaye on her work in politics and passing
Description
A friend of Nikki Kaye has described her as an incredibly determined person.
The 44-year-old former National MP died on Saturday after battling cancer.
Her family says a private cremation service was held on Monday.
Kaye served as Auckland Central MP from 2008 until 2020.
Friend David Farrar told Mike Hosking that he and others in the National party told her she wouldn't win the nomination or seat for Auckland Central.
He says Kaye had a belief in herself and thought she could win it, she knocked on every door in the electorate, and did win.
Farrar says she did a lot of cross-party work.
He says she was very much a National MP, but never thought all goodness came from one party and worked across the political spectrum to achieve things.
