Wiremu Te Kahui Kararehe was born in 1846.
Wiremu Tāmihana took a leading role in the formation of the King movement and the election of Pōtatau Te Wherowhero as the first Māori King. Accordingly, he became known as 'Kingmaker'. When Te Wherowhero was confirmed as king in May 1859, Tāmihana placed a Bible over his head. But, It was Matene Te whiwhi and his cousin Tamihana Te Rauparaha from Ngati Toa who set out on a quest and looked around New Zealand for a worthy candidate for the Maori people.
