Chris Hipkins will likely replace Jacinda Ardern as the 41st prime minister of New Zealand after being nominated by fellow MPs, Reuters reported. The next premier's uncertainty will be settled on Sunday once he receives formal backing from Labour members. Hipkins had served as the COVID-19 response minister under Ardern and became a top contender for the post after her shocking resignation on Thursday.
