Your Vote for Our Waitakere | QURESHi, Rizwan Ahmed
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: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Product recalls
I am appalled at the number of product recalls - salmon to snack balls to a huge range of toys. Not good enough manufacturers! Surely products are health and safety checked.
