Minister of State and Minister of Interior and Local Authorities Ibrahim Mourad oversaw the installation of Abdel Wahab Zini as the new Wali of El Tarf province on 22 October 2026. This administrative transition marks a significant moment for the provincial governance of El Tarf. During the formal ceremony, Ibrahim Mourad asserted that "نجاح أيّ مشروع مقرون بأثره الإيجابي على المواطن." The Minister emphasized that the success of any development initiative is intrinsically linked to its tangible, positive impact on the daily lives of citizens.
He further urged local officials to "رفع مستوى اليقظة والحذر والالتفاف على بعضهم البعض، ليُكوّنوا سدّاً منيعاً ضدّ أعداء الوطن؛ الّذين لا يريدون تحقق الديناميكية التي تشهدها الجزائر الآن، بل لا يريدون أن يكون للجزائري أي اعتبار." Regarding national progress, Ibrahim Mourad stated, "الإنجازات الأخيرة تُعتبر نقطة لا رجوع على التنمية الاقتصادية المستدامة، فما كان في السابق حلماً أصبح اليوم مشاريع مُجسدةٌ على أرض الواقع، والأمثلة عديدة."
Citizen Centric Development Strategies
President Abdelmadjid Tebboune maintains a policy priority of positioning the citizen at the center of every national strategy and development project. Official directives mandate that all local administrative actions align with this approach to ensure public needs remain the primary focus of governance. This directive serves as a foundational pillar for the administrative activities overseen by the Ministry of Interior and Local Authorities.
Ibrahim Mourad reiterated this official stance during the installation ceremony held on 22 October 2026. He stated that recent achievements in Algeria represent a point of no return for sustainable economic development. According to the Minister, projects that were previously considered aspirational have now transitioned into tangible infrastructure and operational programs across the country. The Minister noted that these developments are evidence of the government's commitment to transforming long-term goals into reality.
Public participation remains a core component of these state objectives. Ibrahim Mourad called on citizens to increase vigilance and unity to act as a shield against those who oppose the current development in Algeria. He requested that local stakeholders and the broader population maintain cohesion to protect the ongoing momentum of these national initiatives.
The installation of Abdel Wahab Zini as the new Wali of El Tarf is intended to facilitate the implementation of these national strategies at the local level. By ensuring that local governance is synchronized with the vision of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, the administration aims to foster an environment where sustainable growth can flourish. Minister Ibrahim Mourad showed that the unity of the Algerian people is the primary safeguard against external opposition to this national progress. Consequently, the mandate for the new Wali includes a focus on maintaining this vigilance while advancing the development projects that prioritize the citizen. The ceremony concluded with a call for continued dedication to the national interest, ensuring that the momentum established by recent economic achievements is preserved and expanded throughout the province and the nation at large.
