Your Vote for Our Waitakere | QURESHi, Rizwan Ahmed

Rizwan from Glen Eden

Kia ora, neighbours,
My name is Rizwan Ahmed Qureshi, and if we haven’t met yet, I’m a dad, a husband, and a long-time community advocate right here in Waitakere.
Your ballot papers are arriving now. This is our chance to choose a Local Board member who listens, cares, and will roll up their sleeves to get things done.

I’m not a career politician. I’m a neighbour who shares your concerns: keeping our communities safe from flooding, protecting our stunning natural environment, and creating a future our kids will be proud to inherit.
I promise to be your accessible, hardworking, and honest voice on the Board.
When you fill out your ballot, please vote for QURESHI, Rizwan Ahmed. Let’s build a stronger, greener, more connected Waitakere—together.
Ngā mihi,
Rizwan Ahmed Qureshi
Your neighbour and candidate for Waitakere Ranges Local Board.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.

Auckland, why are we so excited about a new store? 🚗🛒

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

I think we’ve all seen the traffic notices and headlines about the new IKEA by now!

So here’s the question: why do we get so excited when a new store opens? Convenience? Curiosity? A reason for a weekend outing? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
