Educational and Environmental Crises Face Moroccan Cities Amid Calls for Urgent Solutions

In a report published by “Al-Osbou’ Al-Sahafi” (The Press Week), a series of problems facing several Moroccan cities were revealed, ranging from educational and environmental to health issues.

In Tangier, the incomplete construction of the “Abed Al-Jabri” high school in the Kzanaya community has angered parents who had enrolled their children in the institution for the current academic year. The report indicated that construction work is still ongoing despite officials’ promises that the school would be ready at the beginning of the school year. Parents also complained about the lack of paved roads and suitable transportation to facilitate students’ access to the school.

In Al Hoceima, residents are suffering from the spread of stray dogs in streets and neighborhoods, posing a danger to citizens’ safety, especially children near schools. Concerned parties have called for urgent intervention to solve this problem.

In Kenitra, pollution from a paper factory has raised concerns among residents. Black smoke rises from the factory located in the city center, which may cause serious health hazards. Civil society organizations have addressed the relevant authorities to intervene and put an end to this environmental pollution.

In Sidi Ifni, activists warned against the use of plastic pipes unsuitable for drinking water transportation in the Sidi Abdullah Oublaid area. They demanded that the provincial council withdraw these pipes and replace them with others that meet national and international health safety standards.

These multiple issues highlight the challenges facing Moroccan cities in the areas of education, environment, and public health, emphasizing the need for quick and effective intervention by the concerned authorities to address these problems and improve the quality of life for citizens.
