Porirua City names street after late Reverend Perema Leasi

Ixion Lane has been renamed to Perema Leasi Lane.

A small blessing was held on Monday 2 August to open the new laneway.

“Naming this street for him is a small token, but one that will ensure that his memory and the work he did in this part of Porirua will forever be commemorated,” says Porirua City Mayor Anita Baker.

Reverend Perema Leasi who was from Saipai, on Savai'i, Samoa was the solo minister at Christ the King Pacific Islands Presbyterian Church in Porirua.
