Félix Tokoragi is a French Polynesian politician and Member of the Assembly of French Polynesia. He has served as Mayor of Makemo since 2014.

He was elected to the Mekemo town council in 2014[1] and subsequently elected mayor.

In December 2017 Tokoragi handcuffed a man who had attacked him to an entrance post outside the town hall while waiting for police.[2] In November 2021 he was fined XPF 100,000 for violence by a person holding public authority for the offence.[3][4][5]

He was re-elected as Mayor in May 2020.[6]

He was first elected to the Assembly of French Polynesia in the 2018 French Polynesian legislative election as a Tapura Huiraatira representative. He later split from Tapura Huiraatira and allied with Nuihau Laurey and Nicole Sanquer to form A here ia Porinetia.[7][8][9]
