Regional writer pulls out of race raises bias concerns

Abdel Rahim Noufisso, the regional secretary of the Authenticity and Modernity Party in the Souss-Massa region, has decided to withdraw from participating in the upcoming legislative elections in the Tata province. This decision was made due to actions by some officials and local authorities that go beyond administrative neutrality and attempt to influence voters' choices in favor of certain candidates and parties considered aligned with specific interests. Noufisso confirmed that he reported the details of these practices to the relevant authorities. However, as the election date approached, these practices persisted, prompting him to refrain from competing in the elections out of concern that the conditions for a fair, transparent, and neutral administrative environment were not being met—especially in light of repeated violations he condemns. Despite this, Noufisso stated that he will not abandon political work and intends to support projects related to the issues of Tata Province. He believes that the current circumstances prevented him from running, but he remains confident in his ability to compete in the future. He emphasized that neutrality of the administration is a right of the voter before it is a right of the candidate, and continues to engage with his supporters despite his withdrawal.
