Aziz Akhannouch (Arabic: عزيز أخنوش, Standard Moroccan Tamazight: ⵄⴰⵣⵉⵣ ⴰⵅⵏⵏⵓⵛ, romanized: Ɛaziz Axnnuc; born 31 December 1961)[1] is a Moroccan politician, businessman, and billionaire who is currently the Prime Minister of Morocco since his government took office on 7 October 2021.[2] He is the CEO of Akwa Group and also served as Minister of Agriculture from 2007 to 2021.

Akhannouch's political career has been generally characterized by several controversies, including accusations of corruption and negative relations with the press.[3][4] His government has been additionally marked by inflation, as well as continued suppression of dissenting opinions.[5][6][7] It has been suggested that Akhannouch may have been elected by election fraud and vote buying, as the previous party, the PJD saw its support collapse from 125 to just 12 seats.[8][9][10]

Early life and education

Akhannouch was born in 1961 in Tafraout and raised in Casablanca.[11][12] He comes from the Amazigh tribe of Souss of Aït Ammeln. His mother and sister were survivors of the 1960 Agadir earthquake that killed ten of his family members; they were reported to have been left buried beneath rubble for several hours before being rescued.[13]

In 1986, Akhannouch graduated from the Université de Sherbrooke with a management diploma.[14]

Business

He is the CEO of Akwa Group, a Moroccan conglomerate particularly active in the oil and gas sector.[1] Forbes estimated his net worth as $1.4 billion in November 2013.[15] Akhannouch inherited Akwa from his father.[15] In 2020, he was ranked 12th on Forbes's annual list of Africa's wealthiest billionaires, with an estimated net worth of $2 billion.[16]

Political career

From 2003 to 2007, Akhannouch was the president of the Souss-Massa-Drâa regional council.[14] He was a member of the National Rally of Independents party, before leaving it on 2 January 2012.[17][18]

He served as Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries between 2007 and 2021, During this period, he successfully implemented the Green Morocco Plan, an ambitious agricultural development strategy that was introduced by King Mohammed VI in April 2008 and has received international recognition and admiration as a true model and example.[19]

On 23 August 2013 he was appointed by King Mohammed VI as Minister of Finance on an interim basis after Istiqlal ministers resigned from Benkirane's cabinet, a position he kept until 9 October 2013.[14]

On 27 July 2016, Akhannouch met with Jonathan Pershing, Special Envoy for Climate Change for the United States. They spoke about preparations for the 2016 United Nations Conference of the Parties.[20]

On 29 October 2016, Akhannouch rejoined the RNI after being elected as president of the party. He took over Salaheddine Mezouar's position, who had resigned following the 2016 general election.[21]

In March 2020, through his company Afriquia, a subsidiary of the Akwa group, Akhannouch donated roughly one billion dirhams ($103.5 million) to a COVID-19 pandemic management fund founded by King Mohammed VI.[22][23]

Prime Minister of Morocco (2021—present)

In the 2021 general election, his party placed first, winning 222 seats of the 435 seats, while the governing Justice and Development Party lost 113 of its previous seats. On 10 September 2021, he was appointed as Prime Minister by King Mohammed VI, succeeding Saadeddine Othmani, and was tasked by the King to form a new government.[2][24][25][26][27]

Akhannouch announced the formation of an official coalition government alongside the PAM and Istiqlal parties on 22 September 2021,[28] thus officiating his status as Prime Minister-designate of Morocco. On 7 October 2021, he assumed office as the new Prime Minister.[29][30]

Since taking office, Akhannouch has represented King Mohammed VI at several foreign engagements and read speeches delivered by him during summits, including at the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference.[31]

In late October, Akhannouch was criticized by Moroccan citizens for wearing a pin of the MENA region that excluded Western Sahara while attending a Green Initiative event in Saudi Arabia.[32]

In September 2022, Akhannouch attended the 77th session of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.[33]

On 11 October 2022, Akhannouch met with Prince Guillaume, Hereditary Grand Duke of Luxembourg along with his business partners in Rabat,[34] in order to boost economic trade between Morocco and Luxembourg.[35][36]

In December 2022, he attended the United States–Africa Leaders Summit 2022 and met with US President Joe Biden.[37]

On 1 February 2023, Akhannouch participated with Spanish prime minister Pedro Sánchez in the 12th edition of the Morocco-Spain High Level Meeting in Rabat,[38][39] in which both countries signed a total of 19 bilateral agreements concerning a plethora of sectors.[40][41]

In July 2023, Akhannouch attended the 2023 Russia–Africa Summit in Saint Petersburg and met with Russian President Vladimir Putin.[42]

Controversies

Akhannouch was the target of several accusations of corruption during his time as Minister of Agriculture. In 2017, the Secretary General of the Istiqlal Party, Hamid Chabat, accused him of stealing 13 billion Moroccan dirhams intended to go towards gas compensation during a party meeting. At a previous gathering in Fez, he additionally accused Akhannouch of corruption, and implied that his $2 billion fortune was the equivalent of "all that 30 million Moroccans own".[3] An open letter to King Mohammed VI from blogger Maysa Salama al-Naji published online in June 2021 cited a 400-page report counting corruption charges against Akhannouch.[43]

Akhannouch has been criticized over the suppression of dissenting opinions and imprisonment of opponents, alongside calls for an end to violations of freedom of speech and the right to peaceful demonstration.[7]

17 billion case

In 2015 and 2016, after the Moroccan government of Abdelilah Benkirane decided to liberalize fuel prices, the fuel companies decided to collude with each other and not reduce prices. Among those companies was the Akwa company, owned by Akhannouch.[44]

The profits of these companies amounted to about 17 billion dirhams (around US$1.75 billion), and several parties described them as immoral and illegal profits on the back of the Moroccan people. There were still several demands to restore them, whether in Parliament or in the media.[45][46][47][48]

During the period following the case, the president of the Competition Council, Driss Guerraoui, prepared a report on Akhannouch's illegal profits, and submitted it to King Mohammed VI.[49] In March 2021, Guerraoui was relieved of his position and replaced by Ahmed Rahhou.[50]

Press relations

As of 2016, the Ministry of Agriculture spent several million dirhams annually in massive advertising in the country's print press.[4] If a newspaper criticized Akhannouch or his Maroc Vert plan, it immediately saw the Ministry's advertisements cut off, along with those of the Akwa group.[4]

In 2017, Akhannouch sued three journalists from the Badil news site for having criticized him. He demanded that they pay him 1 million dirhams.[51]

2018 boycott

In the spring of 2018, Morocco was shaken by a boycott movement launched against Centrale Danone, Sidi Ali (mineral water) and Akwa's subsidiary Afriquia. The three brands, which are major distributors of three basic products – milk, water and fuel – were accused by the population of charging very high prices. The movement became extremely popular, leading to reactions from the government.[9][52][53]

According to the French think tank School of Thought on Economic Warfare (EPGE), which investigated the boycott movement, it was a campaign of "hierarchized" disinformation "therefore orchestrated by a precise political agenda", which would have benefited from a substantial budget, with for example between 100,000 and 500,000 euros for the purchase of online space to disseminate the ideas of the movement, as well as expensive donation campaigns to the poor to mobilize public opinion. According to the same study, the movement of Al Adl Wa Al Ihssane would be behind this boycott campaign with the aim of removing Akhanouch from the political scene.[54]

Akhannouch himself said he "ignored" the boycott campaign while speaking to Jeune Afrique, accusing opponents of "exploiting Moroccans' hardship for political goals".[10][55]

On 17 November 2018, Driss Guerraoui was appointed by King Mohammed VI as president of the Competition Council.[56] In 2020, the Council recognized that the three brands targeted by the 2018 boycott campaign had reached an agreement on prices.[57]

Milan comments

In December 2019, during a meeting in Milan with Moroccans living in Italy, Akhannouch declared, "Whoever believes that they can come and insult the institutions of the country has no place in Morocco. Whoever wants to live in Morocco must respect its motto and its democracy. Insults will not move us forward. And excuse me, but it is not justice that should do this job. […] We must re-educate Moroccans who lack education."[58] The remarks triggered strong reactions from Moroccan politicians and citizens as well as a call for the resuming of the 2018 boycott of his companies.[58] TelQuel attributed his comments in relation to the arrest & prosecution of a Moroccan YouTuber after he published a video criticizing King Mohammed VI's speeches.[58][59] The Milan comments were alluded to in the popular music video "M3a L3echrane" by Dizzy DROS.[60]

2021 election

In the runup to the 2021 general election, Abdellatif Ouahbi, Secretary General of the Authenticity and Modernity Party which later joined the government coalition, accused Akhannouch of "flooding the political scene with money", while the Justice and Development Party heading the outgoing coalition condemned the "obscene use of funds to lure voters and some polling station supervisors", without naming any parties.[61] Additionally, the party also alleged "serious irregularities" in the voting process.[8] Nabil Benabdallah, head of the Party of Progress and Socialism, criticized the RNI during an interview for giving sums of money to lure candidates from other parties "in full view of everyone".[61] An RNI spokesperson contacted by Agence France-Presse said the accusations had been "rejected" by the party, and declined any further comments.[61]

Rising prices and inflation

Throughout less than 200 days into Akhannouch's time in office, he became a target of Moroccans calling for his resignation, accusing him of corruption. The prices of fuel and several essential food products have skyrocketed in recent months, as the price of a 5-litre bottle of vegetable oil increased by 27 dirhams, while the price of 25 kg of semolina, widely used in Moroccan cuisine, increased by 50 dirhams. The inflation affected many vulnerable families, in which more than 430,000 Moroccans lost their jobs.[5][6]

#Degage_Akhannouch campaign

In 2022, as fuel prices continued to rise, an online campaign emerged with tens of thousands of users on Twitter and Facebook using the three French hashtags #7dh_Gazoil, #8dh_Essence and #Degage_Akhannouch ("Get out Akhannouch") to call for an immediate decrease in gas prices, accusing Akhannouch and his company Afriquia of benefiting from the crisis.[10][62][63][64] Abdelilah Benkirane, head of the Justice and Development Party (PJD) and former Prime Minister, said that he "didn't support" the online campaign, adding that "only Sidna (our lord) [King Mohammed VI] has the competence (…) to put an end to this cabinet and call for the organisation of early legislative elections".[10][65] Nevertheless, several PJD members participated in the campaign.[10]

2023 Marrakesh Earthquake

On 8 September 2023, an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.8 Mw hit Marrakesh-Safi region of Morocco.[66][67] Akhannouch received criticism from the Moroccan people for his absence and lack of management towards those affected by the earthquake.[68][69] 2 days after the earthquake occurred, Akhannouch sent his condolences to families affected by the disaster.[70][71][72] Akhannouch pledged to rebuild all infrastructures destroyed by earthquake.[73]

Personal life

Akhannouch is married to Salwa Idrissi, a businesswoman who owns a company active in malls and holds the Moroccan franchises for brands such as Gap and Zara.[15] They have three children.[74]

As Minister of Agriculture, Akhannouch hosted King Mohammed VI and his immediate family for Ramadan iftar on two separate occasions in 2013 and 2016.[75]

On 21 November 2022, government spokesperson Mustapha Baitas announced that Akhannouch had tested positive for COVID-19.[76][77][78]
