Hamid Chabat Makes a Political Comeback with Reem Chabat
The name Hamid Chabat has resurfaced in the political landscape of Fes, Morocco, as he and his daughter, parliamentarian Reem Chabat, appeared together during a public meeting organized by the Popular Movement Party in the Ouled Tayeb community. This gathering is part of the party’s preparations for the upcoming legislative elections. Chabat, a former secretary-general of the Istiqlal Party and the former mayor of Fes, attracted significant attention alongside his daughter during this event, which was led by the current secretary-general of the Popular Movement Party, Mohamed Ouzine. The meeting was dedicated to introducing several candidates that the party intends to support in the forthcoming elections in the Fes-Meknes region.
During this event, the Popular Movement Party officially endorsed Reem Chabat as the head of the party's list for the northern Fes district, positioning her to contest the upcoming elections under the party's banner. Additionally, Khalid Al-Ajli, who recently joined from the National Rally of Independents, was introduced as the party's candidate for the southern Fes district. The presence of Hamid Chabat and his daughter garnered notable enthusiasm from party supporters, marked by loud cheers and applause during their introduction.
Hamid Chabat’s re-emergence in Fes's political arena is expected to intensify competition among various political factions, as he has previously held prominent positions, including the presidency of the city council and the general secretariat of the Istiqlal Party, along with a longstanding presence in trade union and political activities.
