Dozens of residents from the villages in the Tamda Noumercid commune, Azilal province, marched Monday morning to the provincial headquarters to denounce what they called years of isolation and neglect, Hespress reported.

Protesters carried banners demanding the end of marginalization and insisted their requests were fundamental rights, not luxuries.

Their main demands include repairing the road linking Tamda Noumercidto Ourir, building a local health center, providing early childhood education and creating neighborhood sports fields.

Calls were also made for new feeder roads to connect villages to nearby centers, the extension of electricity coverage, and stronger internet and telecommunications networks.

According to the same sources, authorities responded by meeting a six-person delegation representing the villagers.

A mixed committee including relevant services is expected to visit the area to examine the situation and propose practical solutions. Similar demonstrations were held in mid-August by nearby hamlets seeking roads and school transport.
