Reporter Kapi-Mana News

Three-term Porirua councillor Anita Baker has announced her bid for the city's mayoral chains.

The Whitby resident says her campaign - and potential mayoralty - will highlight her experience, financial nous, proven ability and honesty.

"I'm a 'say it as it is' kind of person, you won't die wondering what I think," she said.

What do you think of these comments? Do you think she's a suitable candidate?
