Sorry Tighanimine But You Are Wrong!!!

The French Moroccan sociologist residing in France, Mariame Tighanimine, has aroused a big controversy in the French media as well as in several Moroccan media outlets through her remarks against the monarchy, especially during the World Cup in Qatar.
Tighanimine accused Morocco of corruption, dictatorship, and non-respect of human rights and freedoms on different platforms and social networks such as Twitter.
The lady made allegations about Morocco’s implication in the Qatar-EU Affair. Tighanimine based her opinion on an article by a French media outlet, saying that Mohamed Yassine Mansouri, head of the intelligence services (DGED), accompanied by Abdellatif Hammouchi, director of the National Security Body (DGST), were present in the official stands during the Morocco-Canada football game, representing the country.
Certainly, the two guardians of safety and security in the Kingdom were present during that match, but for another reason, for a reason that is beyond the grasp of some people. It is absolutely necessary to remember that the DGST was chosen by the Qatari authorities to ensure security during the World Cup. This presence is invited, justified and legitimate. The accord of cooperation had been signed between Morocco and Qatar on Oct. 2nd to boost bilateral security cooperation during the 2022 FIFA World Cup, according to Doha News.
Tighanimine called the Moroccan Kingdom a dictatorship that does not respect Human Rights and Freedom of Speech. This accusation is self-refuting coming from a French citizen. The reason? Well, the so-called country of “liberté, égalité, fraternité” bans the veil in public spaces and schools. THIS IS A DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY THAT RESPECTS HUMAN RIGHTS AND FREEDOM. In Morocco veiled or non-veiled is not even considered an obstacle to access universities, jobs or public spaces, said Loubna El Joud, a Moroccan Communication Trainer, Feminist, and Human Rights Activist, on her Facebook page.
The French citizen of Moroccan origin focused on the fact that in the Kingdom there is no room for elections, and Moroccans cannot choose the King. Well, you are stating the obvious. Morocco has been ruled by a king or a sultan since the dawn of history. The monarch is chosen in a traditional way called “Bay’ah”, where the people pledge allegiance to the King. This population is represented by the deputies they choose during the “ELECTIONS.”
In addition, Morocco is a Constitutional and Democratic Monarchy, according to the Moroccan constitution which was “voted” by Moroccans in 2011. Moroccans do vote to select their Head of Government, and their representatives in the Parliament too.
Tighanimine brought up the point that Morocco is dependent on the remittances sent by its diaspora abroad. She interpreted that as a relationship based on control that does not play in favor of Moroccan nationals abroad. But, is Morocco exerting some sort of power to make them do so? Moroccan expats do it of their own free will, a concept that may be alien to Tighanimine.
Indeed, the Moroccan Diaspora is important to our economy’s growth, but it is not the only pillar of the Moroccan economy. Morocco built an economy that is modern and diversified. It is based on Foreign and National Investments in many fields, such as automotive industry, renewables, agriculture, fisheries, tourism…
Tighanimine, who seem to be brainwashed by the principles of secularism, should come more often visit Morocco to experience real freedom.
