Boka Kondra

Boka Kondra is a Papua New Guinea politician. He has been a member of the National Parliament of Papua New Guinea since July 2007, representing the electorate of North Fly Open. He was initially elected as an independent, but joined the People's National Congress in the post-election window.

Kondra first contested in the 2002 election as a candidate of the Yumi Reform Party, but was defeated by Rural Pipol's Pati candidate Martin Tabi.[1] He contested the seat for a second time at the 2007 election, running as an independent, and succeeded in defeating Tabi, who had by this time joined the People's National Congress.[2] Kondra then himself joined the People's National Congress in the weeks after the election, despite earlier reports that he would join the National Alliance.[3][4]
