Wellington:

New Zealand’s Governor Normal will appoint Labour chief Chris Hipkins as prime minister in a proper ceremony on Wednesday, the federal government stated following the resignation of outgoing Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern final week.

The Labour celebration elected former COVID-19 Response and Police minister Hipkins, 44, to guide the celebration and the nation on Sunday. This comes after the shock resignation of Ardern, 42, who stated she had “no extra within the tank” to guide the nation.

Earlier than Hipkins turns into prime minister, Ardern will tender her resignation to King Charles’ consultant in New Zealand, Governor Normal Cindy Kiro. Kiro will then appoint Hipkins to the position and he can be sworn in.
