The political landscape in Morocco is witnessing significant turmoil as the 'Snebla' party, already reeling from the recent resignation of Mustafa Lakhsom, the president of Imouzar Kander municipality, faces yet another blow. Just hours after Lakhsom announced his departure from the party due to dissatisfaction with the lack of endorsement for the upcoming legislative elections, Rashid Belbouk, a prominent party figure and accounting expert, officially resigned as well. This unexpected move has sent shockwaves through the party's ranks.
Belbouk's resignation came as a surprise to many, especially considering his previous role in representing the party during partial elections in the southern Fes constituency. In a formal letter addressed to Mohammed Ouzin, the secretary-general of the Snebla party, Belbouk cited "objective reasons" for his departure but refrained from providing specific details regarding the motivations behind his decision. However, sources indicate that the central leadership's refusal to endorse Belbouk for the upcoming legislative elections significantly influenced his choice to resign.
Having previously hoped to secure renewed confidence from Ouzin to lead one of the party's lists in the Fes electoral districts, Belbouk's departure may likely trigger a wave of resignations among his supporters and allies. This string of resignations highlights the growing discontent within the party and raises questions about its future direction ahead of the critical elections.
