Fatima Zahra Mansouri's Political Message to the Party's Supporters
In a rousing speech delivered to the supporters of the Authenticity and Modernity Party, Fatima Zahra Mansouri articulated powerful political messages on the eve of the election campaign. Reflecting on an 18-year journey of establishment, organization, and effective political participation, Mansouri made it clear that the party does not seek to attain positions merely for the sake of power but aims to implement a comprehensive national vision. Her words resonated deeply, emphasizing the importance of steadfast commitment and active involvement in the political landscape.
Mansouri praised the unwavering dedication exhibited by party members over the past 18 years, indicating that the emergence of new faces within the party counters any allegations of seasonal recruitment linked to elections. She recalled the party's inception following the 2007 elections, which were marked by significant voter apathy that threatened Morocco's democratic choices. She stressed that the will of the youth was the main driving force behind their engagement in the developmental and democratic path envisioned by King Mohammed VI for the country.
The party leader reiterated her call for young people to engage in political participation, encouraging them to provide constructive criticism of public policies from within institutions. She highlighted that change and democracy require commitment and fieldwork, underscoring the essential role of the youth in shaping the future of the nation.
Achievements and Defense of the Party's Ministers
Discussing the government's experience and the party's affiliation with the majority, Mansouri emphasized that the party's record is commendable and free from any allegations of conflicts of interest. She outlined several initiatives and social and cultural projects that the party has embraced, including the youth passport, which has alleviated the financial burden on young people regarding public transport and facilitated access to cultural venues and book purchases. Furthermore, she pointed to direct housing support directed transparently and honestly to citizens, alongside bold legislative reforms championed by Abdelatif Wahbi, particularly regarding alternative penalties and the protection of individual freedoms. Mansouri asserted that the party's goal is not to intimidate youth under the law but to offer them a second chance to become responsible citizens.
She also acknowledged the joining of prominent academic and national talents to the party, such as Azeddine Elmeidaoui and Fawzi Lekjaa. Mansouri expressed her surprise at the criticisms aimed at Lekjaa's affiliation with the party, emphasizing that the courageous financial and tax reforms he led provided the necessary liquidity to fund direct support projects, health coverage, and housing assistance.
Mansouri reaffirmed that the Authenticity and Modernity Party remained committed to the majority charter until the very end, stating, "We did not flip the script... We have a project and vision, and we are ready to defend them without concessions for narrow electoral gains."
Closing her speech with emotional sentiments directed towards the city of Marrakech and its residents, Mansouri underscored that the trust of the people in the elections of 2009, 2016, and 2021 is the primary source of her political strength and activity on the national stage. She emphasized that the Marrakech municipal council has achieved unprecedented agreements and projects due to a close, honest, and selfless political approach. Mansouri expressed her full confidence in renewing this love and loyalty in the upcoming elections to continue the path of development and proximity to citizens.
