In a significant political and legal development, the Primary Administrative Court in Fes issued rulings on January 15, 2025, ordering the dismissal of several councilors in the Mikes commune, part of the Moulay Yaqoub district. This decision came at the request of the district governor, reflecting a tightening of oversight over local governance and the authorities’ commitment to enforcing laws regulating territorial communities.
According to information obtained by Fes News, the ruling targeted Idriss Aakil, Hani Majdoub, Said Zahraoui, and Idriss Ibn Al-Khatib, all elected members of the Popular Movement Party. They were removed from their positions within the municipal council, including their roles as third, fourth, and first vice presidents of the commune.
These rulings are part of the activation of oversight mechanisms for local governance, with the decision attributed to “legal irregularities” that necessitated dismissal in accordance with standard procedures. The ruling is preliminary and subject to appeal, meaning the dismissed officials have the option to challenge the decision before the Administrative Court of Appeal.
Implications of the Decision: This political earthquake within the Mikes commune raises questions about the future of the municipal council, especially since the dismissal involved several prominent members who held leadership positions. It is expected to pave the way for significant changes in the composition of the commune’s executive board, as stakeholders await the next steps.
For its part, the Popular Movement Party has not issued any official statement regarding the ruling. However, sources close to the party confirmed that the concerned councilors are considering the possibility of appealing the decision.
The most pressing question remains: Will this dismissal be a prelude to similar decisions against other elected officials? And will the Mikes commune witness a political restructuring to ensure better governance in managing local affairs?
