Nabila Rmila, the Mayor of Casablanca, affirmed that she will continue to defend the issues and interests of the economic capital's residents within Parliament, following her resignation from the presidency of the territorial collectivities group "Casablanca-Settat for Distribution".
During a speech on Thursday morning, October 22, 2026, Rmila emphasized that her experience in local governance will be an extension of her work within the legislative institution, allowing her to bring the city's concerns and projects to national discussion.
The Mayor of Casablanca explained that managing a city of the economic capital's size requires listening to citizens, patience, and teamwork. She also highlighted the importance of making the right decisions at the right time, given the magnitude of the daily challenges facing the city.
Rmili added that her experience in local governance has strengthened her conviction that Casablanca's responsibility extends beyond collective management and necessitates contributing to addressing broader issues from within Parliament.
The Mayor thanked the elected officials she has worked with over the past period, expressing her appreciation for the collective work that unites them in serving the city. She also wished them success in continuing their tasks, responding to the expectations of the residents and contributing to improving local services.
Rmili's resignation from the presidency of the territorial collectivities group "Casablanca-Settat for Distribution" comes in the context of her election as a member of the House of Representatives in the recent legislative elections. This step is linked to the incompatibility arising from holding multiple elected responsibilities, while Rmili continues her duties as the head of the Casablanca commune council.
