Meeting of the Political Bureau of the National Rally of Independents
The Political Bureau of the National Rally of Independents (RNI) held a meeting on Wednesday, January 28, 2026, at its central headquarters in Rabat, under the chairmanship of brother Aziz Akhannouch. On this occasion, a presentation was delivered addressing several issues, notably an examination of the current political, social and economic situation, as well as a review of the party’s internal organizational matters.
At the opening of its proceedings, the Political Bureau expressed its great pride in the outstanding success achieved by the Kingdom of Morocco in organizing the 35th edition of the Africa Cup of Nations. This event marked a significant milestone in the history of continental competitions, in view of the high level of organization, the quality of the infrastructure, the smooth flow of transportation, the effectiveness of security arrangements, and the strong public attendance.
In this context, the Political Bureau praised the wisdom and foresight reflected in the recent Royal Cabinet statement in response to attempts to undermine stability and damage the credibility of our country. Members also commended the position of His Majesty the King in favor of bonds of African brotherhood, as well as the reaffirmation of the Kingdom’s constant commitment to a united and prosperous Africa, based on cooperation, solidarity and the sharing of expertise, in the service of the interests of the peoples of the continent and the strengthening of its international standing.
At the governmental level, the Political Bureau welcomed the considerable work accomplished by the government in implementing the 2025 Finance Law, considering it a concrete expression of the soundness of the economic and financial choices adopted. These choices have helped inject positive momentum into the national economy, as illustrated by improved growth indicators, strengthened foreign exchange reserves, and a notable increase in tax revenues, thereby contributing to the fulfillment of social commitments and support for citizens’ purchasing power.
In the same spirit, members of the Political Bureau expressed their great satisfaction with government action and their full support for all its programs. They also commended the significant efforts made in managing public finances, controlling the budget deficit and reducing debt, thereby strengthening confidence in the national economy, its resilience and its attractiveness, and confirming the effectiveness of public policies in a delicate international context.
Subsequently, the Political Bureau listened to a presentation delivered by brother Rachid Talbi Alami, President of the Preparatory Committee of the Extraordinary National Congress. He presented a detailed report on the committee’s work, marked by strong mobilization, sustained engagement and a serious and responsible working spirit. The presentation also addressed the state of progress of the congress preparations, with a view to ensuring the smooth conduct of its proceedings.
In accordance with the provisions of the party’s statutes and internal regulations, and following the end of the period for submitting candidacies for the party presidency, the Political Bureau received the candidacy of brother Mohamed Chouki. After examination, it decided to submit it to the extraordinary congress scheduled to be held in El Jadida on February 7, 2026.
