Afnan Al-Rubayee

We need a city built for people, with communities shaping decisions, not just responding to them. I’m committed to creating a city where people can build a future -with good jobs, decent housing, and opportunities to thrive.

Wellington needs to make serious progress on housing, transport, climate, infrastructure and fixing the pipes. We need to keep community facilities open. We need a city we can afford. These are my priorities. But to achieve all those things we need a refreshed and constructive Council that really listens.

I’m a public servant with a background in NGO governance and grassroots community organising. I came to Wellington as a refugee, grew up in public housing, and now rent in the heart of the city. Because of these experiences I stand for inclusive, community-led change.

Please consider voting Afnan Al-Rubayee #1 for a Council that listens and for a bold, fair future -built together.

Me noho mātāmua te tangata i roto i ngā whakatau mō te tāone. Kia whai wāhi atu hoki ngā hapori. Kia tāraia he tāone e angitu ai te āpōpō mā te marea – mā ngā mahi pai, whare āhuru, ngā āhuatanga e toitū ai rātou.

Me mātua koke whakamua a Pōneke i ngā take whare, te ikiiki, te hangahanga āhuarangi, te whakatika i ngā kōrere tukuwai. Kia tuwhera tonu ngā whare ratonga-ā-hāpori, he tāone ngāwari te utu. He kaimahi-kāwanatanga ahau, he matatau ki te mahi ārahi-ā-hāpori, i ngā take-ā-rohe hoki . I haere mai au ki Pōneke hei hunga whakaruru, i whakatupuria ki tētahi whare tūmatanui. Nā aua wheako, kei te tū au kia whai wāhi ai te katoa, kia koke whakamua ā-hapori tātou.

Tēnā, whai whakaaro mai mā te tuku pōti #1 mō Afnan Al-Rubayee, kia hua mai he Kaunihera taringa pīkari, māia, pono, kua hangaia e tātou katoa.
