Internal Conflicts within the PAM Party in Ba Mohamed Village

The political landscape in Ba Mohamed village, located in the province of Taounate, has recently been marred by internal disputes within the Authenticity and Modernity Party (PAM). Tensions between the local party secretary, Imad Abdel-Moumen El-Darani, and the regional secretary, Mohamed Hajira, have escalated into a public exchange of accusations just days before the upcoming legislative elections. El-Darani's local faction convened on September 16, 2026, where they unanimously decided to withdraw support for Hajira, the party's candidate for the village-Ghafsai district. The local members justified their decision by alleging that Hajira had insulted the villagers with racially charged language and tribal rhetoric, which they deemed derogatory.

Accusations of Extortion and Identity Fraud

In response, Hajira accused El-Darani of impersonating the party's leadership and attempting to extort the party's candidates and officials in Taounate. He asserted that the local party does not have a legally recognized office in Ba Mohamed and thus questioned the legitimacy of El-Darani's claims. Hajira vehemently denied the allegations of tribal or racist discourse, labeling them as fabricated lies aimed at undermining the party's candidates during the electoral campaign. He indicated that he would pursue legal action against anyone found guilty of disseminating such damaging statements about his character.

The situation has further deteriorated as El-Darani's local office issued a statement rebuffing Hajira's accusations, claiming that the regional secretary's assertions were not only irresponsible but also harmful to the party's organization. El-Darani expressed discontent over what he perceived as Hajira's overreach in acting as the head of the national arbitration and ethics committee, suggesting that such decisions should fall under the committee's jurisdiction, not an individual. The local party members have demanded immediate intervention from the national ethics committee to address their grievances and ensure fair treatment for the local party members in Ba Mohamed.
