The electoral programme of Ouessim Grira, candidate for the Halfaouine constituency in the Bab Souika delegation, is based on three pillars: social, economic and sports/culture, with several proposals adapted to the realities of the region and the concerns of its inhabitants, he told TAP.
Ouessim Grira, a 23-year-old children’s football coach, is one of the three candidates for Bab Souika’s local council.
He is committed to promoting equality for all residents of the area, focusing on priority social situations and actively seeking to integrate people with disabilities into the process of social justice.
Grira is proposing the creation of a social enterprise with a social mission to tackle youth unemployment and organise work in the Halfaouine market.
Priority will be given to local residents to work in a structured framework, he added, as he promised to set up a weekly producer-to-consumer market to streamline sales operations.
Grira stresses the need to support the economic engagement of hard-working
women in order to protect them from any form of exploitation.
In the field of culture and sport, the Halfaouine candidate stresses the need to intensify sporting events, both individual and team, in order to provide better guidance for young people. He is in favour of developing and revitalising cultural and sporting spaces in order to protect young people from delinquency and deviance.
The Bab Souika delegation comprises 11 localities, including Tronjah, Bab El Khadhra, Bab Saadoun, Borj Zwara, Bab LSassal, Halfaouine, Bab Souika, Bab Sidi Abdessalam, Zaouia El Bokria, Hammam Remimi and Sidi Djebali.
Eleven candidates are standing in the municipal elections, including two candidates with disabilities who were selected through a sorting process.
