An exclusive source for Fès News has revealed that the Ministry of Interior has issued secret and strict instructions to governors and prefects across the various regions and provinces of the Kingdom, mandating the purification of territorial administration and the fight against all forms of corruption, nepotism, and mismanagement, through the activation of the principle of linking responsibility with accountability.
The source confirmed that these instructions granted governors and prefects broad powers to implement decisive decisions that include dismissal, transfer, or even referral to the judiciary in the event of proven abuses or irregularities in the management of administrative and local affairs, all within the framework of activating a new reform dynamic that the Ministry of Interior seeks to consolidate at the national level.
In this context, the recent events witnessed in both the Sidi Slimane province and the Agadir region are considered the first direct results of these instructions:
In Sidi Slimane, Governor Driss Roubio proceeded to dismiss his chief of staff and other administrative officials in sensitive positions, in what local sources described as an administrative purification campaign aimed at restoring discipline to the administration and improving the quality of public utility services. Abdullah Lahrech was also appointed as the new Secretary-General of the province, succeeding his predecessor, in a move reflecting the new direction towards injecting new competencies.
As for Agadir, Governor Said Amzazi, since his appointment, has initiated a series of changes described as a “soft purge,” which began with the dismissal of his chief of staff, who had spent many years in his position, passing through the termination of the duties of Salwa Benkiran, the head of the National Initiative for Human Development department, despite her exceeding the retirement age. This move aims to end practices of loyalty and the rotation of elites, in line with the new orientations of the state.
The source indicated that these steps are only the beginning, as the comprehensive evaluation process of administrative and territorial frameworks continues, based on field reports and observations from the General Inspectorate of Territorial Administration. The wave of dismissals and transfers is expected to extend to a number of other regions in the coming weeks.
This new dynamic falls within the higher vision of qualifying the territorial administration so that it becomes a genuine lever for development and spatial justice, and to ensure serious interaction with the expectations of citizens.
