He also spoke of the need to open up the region by building new railways and asphalted roads, and promised to work on extending the public lighting network and speeding up work on the Ouled Bouzid dispensary.
For his part, candidate Mounir Mzoughi promised to work to provide school transport for pupils in the area, support poor families and boost the social housing programme, and said that if elected he would also work to connect the Bou Slim road to the Bouhajla delegation in the Kairouan governorate.
