    A council colleague of Efeso Collins says the MP had much more to do

    A council colleague of Efeso Collins says the MP had much more to do


    The former Auckland councillor and mayoral candidate, died this morning after collapsing at a charity event.

    He entered Parliament at last year's election and delivered his maiden speech last week.

    Alf Filipaina says Collins was a strong advocate for South Auckland, and wanted a better future for his daughters.

    He says Collins wanted to make a huge difference in Parliament for his community, and it's disheartening he died so soon.
