This project, which will be built on an area of ​​more than 2 hectares, aims to contribute to the development of commercial activity in the commune of Naima and to improve the supply of food products to the inhabitants of this commune.

Mr. Bouarourou told MAP that this project is part of the implementation of the partnership agreement relating to the rehabilitation and modernization of 51 weekly markets in the provinces of the Oriental region, for an estimated cost of 550 MDH, in order to meet the needs of the populations in food and fodder and to contribute to the development of economic activity.

The delegation also handed over 6 school buses as part of the National Initiative for Human Development (INDH), for a total estimated cost of 2.4 MDH, for the benefit of three local authorities and 3 associations.

In this context, the head of the social action division at the prefecture of Oujda-Angad, Anas Salah, indicated that these buses will contribute to reducing school dropout, particularly among young girls, and to promoting the population’s right to education.

He added that three buses have been allocated to associations active in the field of supporting people with disabilities, which will allow this category of the population to benefit from the services of the centres under the INDH, which are managed by these associations.
