Imhend El Ansar political activity in Boulemane

Overview

Imhend El Ansar, honorary president of the Mouvement Populaire party, re-entered political competition in Morocco’s Boulemane province. During a political meeting in Missour, El Ansar pledged to address regional developmental challenges, including inadequate infrastructure, limited social services, and healthcare shortages in rural and mountainous areas.

Following the recent legislative elections, El Ansar addressed his defeat in the Boulemane constituency. He explained that his candidacy was driven by requests from local party members despite his previous intention to step away from field operations. He noted that he had conditioned his candidacy on resigning his parliamentary seat if he won to allow the second candidate on the list to serve, a factor he suggested may have intensified competition for that position. El Ansar attributed the loss to a late campaign start and a long absence from local politics, stating he accepts the results and remains available to support the party.
