John Plant Hoka

John Plant Hoka was a Solomon Islands politician.

Hoka worked as a schoolteacher on Guadalcanal until leaving his job to promote Maasina Ruru, an anti-British movement.

He was a candidate in the indirectly-elected Central Solomons seat in the 1965 election, losing to Lilly Ogatina. When the Legislative Council was expanded from one to fourteen directly-elected seats in 1967, Hoka contested the Central Solomons constituency in the elections that year. He was elected to the Council with 39% of the vote.

The Central Solomons constituency was abolished prior to the 1970 elections to the new Governing Council. Hoka ran in the new Ngella/Savo/Russells constituency, but finished fourth in a field of five candidates. He did not run for national office again.
