Ghouse Majeed is a National Party candidate for the Manurewa electorate [15][19].

According to single reputable secondary sources, Majeed is a businessman based in South Auckland [1][3], and has also been described as a community leader [4][9]. He is, according to unverified sources, of Hyderabad origin [10]. A separate unverified source places him as a staff member at a Mobil petrol station on Cavendish Drive in Papatoetoe, Auckland [6].

In terms of civic involvement, Majeed is a confirmed Vice-President of the Urdu Hindi Cultural Association [8] and a confirmed founder trustee of the Ethnic Arts and Trade Foundation New Zealand [11]. According to a single reputable secondary source, he has also served as Vice-President of the Mana Andhra Telugu Association [7].

Sources differ on Majeed's party affiliation history — one unverified source indicates a prior association with the Labour Party [17], while confirmed sources record his affiliation with the New Zealand National Party [19]. He was confirmed as the National Party candidate for Manurewa from 14 April 2026 [15].

Looked for, not found

  • No public record found of Ghouse Majeed's specific educational background or pre-community career history.
  • NZ Herald articles about Ghouse Majeed's Papatoetoe petrol station robbery are paywalled — unable to extract claims from those URLs.

The agent checked these topics across the allowed public sources but could not find verbatim-quotable evidence. Absence doesn't rule the fact out — it just means no journalist-accessible source covered it at run time.
