A contentious election battle has flared up in the Mediouna constituency within the Casablanca-Settat region of Morocco. The dispute pits the Authenticity and Modernity Party (PAM) against the National Rally of Independents (RNI). Tensions began escalating Monday morning with the start of candidate nominations. A key clash has emerged between Abdelrahim Bendou, PAM’s regional coordinator and list representative for Mediouna, and Amin Ennaqt, RNI’s candidate and regional coordinator. The cause of the dispute remains unspecified in this initial report, but signals a highly competitive election environment. Further details are anticipated as the campaign progresses. The rivalry suggests a significant power struggle between these two prominent Moroccan political parties.
