A⁣ Power Struggle in Morocco:⁢ Will Miara Remain at the Helm of‌ the House of Councilors?

A political showdown is brewing ​in Morocco as Enaam‍ Mayara, the current President of ‍the House of Councilors⁢ (the upper house of Parliament), faces a challenge to his leadership from within the Istiqlal Party. Mayara, aligned with the Sahrawi political⁣ current, is determined to hold onto his position, defying calls for him to step down in October.

The Istiqlal Party, led by Nizar Baraka, has been pushing for a​ change at ​the helm, arguing that other party members‍ deserve a chance to lead. This internal struggle is further complicated by the upcoming cabinet reshuffle, with several ⁢Istiqlal members vying for ministerial positions. Some within the party see Mayara’s continued leadership as an obstacle to their own ambitions.

Mayara, ⁢however, remains defiant. He argues that his ‌election was not solely due ⁣to‌ the Istiqlal Party but rather a result of broader support from the ruling coalition, including the ‍National Rally of Independents (RNI) and the Authenticity and Modernity Party (PAM). He also enjoys strong backing from the General Union ⁣of Moroccan Workers (UGTM), ‌which he heads, and parliamentarians from the Sahara region.

This power struggle ⁢within the Istiqlal Party comes at a time when the party⁣ is already facing internal⁢ divisions. Baraka has struggled to finalize the list of 34 members for the party’s executive committee, highlighting​ the existing factionalism.

Some analysts believe⁤ that ⁣the Istiqlal Party’s push for Mayara’s removal is not⁤ solely about the House of​ Councilors presidency. They argue that some within the party see Mayara as a potential rival ⁣to Baraka’s​ leadership in the future, particularly in light of Mayara’s growing ⁣political profile.

The situation remains fluid, with‌ Mayara seemingly confident in the continued support⁢ of the ruling coalition. However, the internal​ dynamics of the Istiqlal Party and the⁤ upcoming cabinet reshuffle add layers of complexity to the⁣ situation. The coming months will⁤ be‌ crucial in determining ‌whether Mayara ‍can⁤ weather the‍ storm and retain his position as the head of⁢ the House of Councilors.
