Rima Jillian Nakhle is a New Zealand National Party politician and a member of parliament for the Takanini electorate in the House of Representatives.

[5] Nakhle was the executive manager of Te Mahia Community Village,[1] a transitional and emergency housing service converted from a former camping ground owned by her husband's family.

The camping ground was reportedly a centre of homeless activity prior to its formal conversion; when Nakhle moved to New Zealand, she applied for permission to officially convert it to a "community village".

Her proposal originally faced pushback, with government officials concerned the area would turn into a locus of antisocial behaviour.

[2] In June 2020, Nakhle was selected over sitting list MP Agnes Loheni as the National Party candidate for the newly established Takanini electorate.
