Progress and Socialism Party Challenges Liberals in Fquih Ben Salah By-Election
A Political Showdown in Fquih Ben Salah: Progress and Socialism Party Challenges RNI in By-Election
The political landscape of Fquih Ben Salah is heating up as the Progress and Socialism Party (PPS) throws its hat into the ring for the upcoming by-election on September 12th. This decision sets the stage for a captivating contest, pitting the PPS against the National Rally of Independents (RNI), a prominent member of the current ruling coalition.
The PPS, known for its left-leaning stance, has officially endorsed Bashir Al-Mutqi as its candidate. Al-Mutqi, a respected professor at the Faculty of Law, Economics, and Social Sciences at Cadi Ayyad University, received his nomination directly from PPS Secretary-General, Mohammed Nabil Benabdallah.
While the RNI currently holds a strong position within the governing coalition, the PPS’s entry injects a dose of unpredictability into the race. By-elections, often viewed as a litmus test of public sentiment towards the government, add another layer of intrigue to this political showdown.
The outcome in Fquih Ben Salah could have broader implications for the Moroccan political scene
