LE MATIN DU SAHARA:
The government program will be presented at the beginning of next week: Opening of Parliament's spring session on the background calls for strengthening the efficiency of the legislative institution: "The parliamentarians find their seats in the hemicycle. The spring session was officially opened last Friday. Few advisors made the trip in the morning to attend the opening speech by Hakim Benchamach, the President of the second Chamber. On the government side, three ministers were present at this meeting. They are Mustapha El Khalfi, Mohamed Boussaïd and Mohamed Aujjar. The nature of the links between the two institutions is one of the challenges of this mandate. Especially since the mandate of Benkirane, their relationship was not in the right place. Today, Hakim Benchamach expressed his readiness to establish a fruitful partnership with the executive, according to the logic of separation and the balance of power. The presentation of the Government statement will be the first opportunity to engage in this exercise under the mandate of Mr. El Othmani. The context in which the spring session opening is "special", as Hakim Benchamach pointed out, on one hand, the installation of the Constitutional Court and the Supreme Council of the Judiciary, and on other hand, the forming of the Government. Always in the same order of ideas, the President of the House of Councilors highlighted the return of Morocco to the African Union."

Barrel and liter up to the binds: The hydrocarbons without the SAMIR: "The bankruptcy of the Samir, the only refiner in Morocco, has finally hit all the Moroccans. In fact, one year and eight months after its shutdown, the impact of such situation began to be felt, not only in the purchasing power of Moroccans, but also at the level of the national economy in general and the energy security of the country in particular."
The Moroccan-Algerian relations towards promising horizons: The happy prediction of Abderrahmane El Youssoufi: "Since his withdrawal from the Moroccan political scene, Abderrahmane El Youssoufi has no longer made a statement about politics. It was not until fourteen years before our colleagues from 2M succeeded, during the program "Kolona Abtal", presented by Adil Benmoussa and devoted to the militant M'barek Boudarka, to have his point of view on many hot topics. Abderrahmane El Youssoufi reported a true scoop by stating, through the microphone of 2M, that the Moroccan-Algerian relations would move towards promising horizons."
AL BAYANE:
Meeting between the General Secretary and the PPS MPs: "The General Secretary of the Party of Progress and Socialism (PPS), Mohamed Nabil Benabdallah, held on Friday, the 14th of April, a meeting with the parliamentary group of the Party, only hours before the opening of the spring session of Parliament. During this meeting, the leader of the Parti du Livre has reviewed the main stakes of this legislative session and what awaits the parliamentary grouping in particular with regard to legislation and control, especially given that this session will be very busy given the delay in the process of forming the government."
54 cases of fainting among students in Fkih Ben Saleh: "The fainting cases of 54 girls, pupils of the high school Okba Ibn Nafi, in the rural commune of Sidi Issa, in the province of Fkih Ben Salehqui, which occurred on Thursday, have "absolutely nothing to do with any food or drug poisoning", highlighted, on Friday, the Provincial Directorate of the Ministry of National Education, Vocational Training, Higher Education and Scientific Research of Fkih Ben Saleh."
Crisis of the Samir: The local Monitoring Front is sounding the alarm: ""The liberalization of the hydrocarbon sector has not had the expected effects," underline the participants in the round table organized by the local front of follow-up of the crisis of Samir, in Mohammedia on Thursday, the 13th of April, 2017. Worse still! The State's policy in the sector has served only the pecuniary interests of certain oil mastodons to the detriment of the purchasing power of the average consumer."
