The township of Seddon is named after New Zealand's longest serving Prime Minister, Richard John Seddon (1845-1906), sometimes known as "King Dick". He is regarded by some as New Zealand's greatest political leader. He was a strong premier, enforcing his authority with great vigour. Accused by his opponents of being an autocrat, he once stated that "a president is all we require", and that Cabinet could be abolished.
