The situation of the second part of the Nador commercial complex has been in stagnation for years, as a group of traders expressed their dissatisfaction with the inability of the local authority to implement the requirements of the book of tolerance of the project. The project, work on which began in 2002, has yet to be completed despite traders investing over five billion cents in its expansion, leaving 150 traders waiting without any progress.
The territorial community of Nador announced two agreements to complete the project during the years 2002 and 2014, but the succession of more than five presidents on the municipal council without implementing the commitments led to a state of economic paralysis. Shops that were supposed to be a source of income for their owners have been closed, which has had a negative impact on their professional and social lives, as many of them face financial and family difficulties because of this situation .
Additionally, the shopping complex has turned into a haven for vagrants and deviants due to neglect. The ship’s various decks became a place for illegal gatherings, causing widespread chaos and unpleasant odors, and the space became a health hazard for nearby residents and the merchants themselves.
Affected traders called Nador provincial employee Jamal Al-Shaarani, demanding urgent intervention to save the project and hand over the stores. They also called for the restoration of this shopping center, which constitutes one of the most notable monuments of the city, calling for the opening of a serious and responsible dialogue with the authorities concerned to find a solution to put an end to this situation.
Faced with persistent stagnation, traders approached the Oujda administrative court to assert their rights. Despite the presentation of documents and evidence proving their damage, the court noted the absence of the local authority from the first hearings. The traders expressed their confidence in the judicial system to provide them justice and respond to their long-awaited legitimate demands.
This problem highlights the absence of effective planning and a real desire to implement development projects serving the local economy, which requires a global review of public affairs management methods to achieve desired development and guarantee the rights of citizens.
