Thanks for writing this Emily. I don't have the words yet to express how sad I am but I've cried all day. He held the door open for our people and it was everything 💔
Such a sad sad day. It is a wonderful maiden speech. He gave it just last week. So much experience, so much to give. What a huge loss for his family, his friends, his fellow Greens, his community. And the rest of us.
I had to skim that so I wouldn't start sobbing. So gutted for his whanau and community, and everyone else. He was such a positive and genuine force, a great role model, smart and articulate, the exact kind of person we should all want as a politician. RIP Efeso, much love to your whanau
So devastated by this news. He was brilliant, and so loved and respected by everybody at Auckland Council. It’s not often we actually get principled and kind politicians.

Terrible news. I was looking forward to seeing what Efeso would do next as a Green MP. Auē
Absolutely tragic. Devastating for his family and what a loss for our country.
And I'm going to be *that* person and say it - meanwhile, Seymour, Peters, and Luxon continue to draw breath. Proof that the world isn't fair.

By all accounts, he was one of the good ones - such a loss to us all, but especially his family and community 😢💚
I’m so very sad about this. 💔
Kia Ora Emily. A terrible day, but what a contribution he made in his 49 years. Vale Efeso.
Oh so very very sad, devastating, bereft.
What a space he leaves, for his family, for our country.
May his mana and mahi live on.
Heartbroken 😢
Thank you Emily. I'm heartbroken.
Just so sad about this. Such a huge loss for the world and so horrific for his family.
