00:00:00unprecedented in Arab and African contexts. It crowns years of
00:00:03achievements and a continuous
00:00:11economic, and social dimensions. In this rather it has a range of path towards the summit. A historic leap with 1803 points and 99 hundredths did not come
00:00:15for cooperation in order to, first of all, in this this time from the Atlas Lions' feet, but from Brazil's draw
00:00:19against Australia, which cost
00:00:21the Samba dancers about two points,
00:00:25tipping the overall ranking calculations in favor of the
00:00:28Moroccan national team. With this advancement, only four
00:00:31teams are ahead of the Atlas Lions:
00:00:34Spain, Argentina, France, and
00:00:37England. This position is not the result of
00:00:40a single match, but the fruit of a cumulative path of
00:00:44results and achievements.
00:00:46The last chapter was in the 2026
00:00:49is to create an atmosphere of World Cup. A draw against Brazil,
00:00:52two victories against Scotland and Haiti, then a win
00:00:56on penalties against Tunisia, and a hat-trick in
00:00:59the net against Ghana took the Lions to the quarter-finals
00:01:02before the journey stopped against
00:01:05France, leaving behind a record that strengthened
00:01:08Morocco's position at the top of world football. A path
00:01:11that also draws its momentum from winning the 2025
00:01:14Africa Cup of Nations after the Atlas Lions
00:01:18carved their way among the continent's giants, and from the epic of Qatar
00:01:222022, from the draw against
00:01:25Croatia and defeating Belgium and Canada, to
00:01:28eliminating Spain
00:01:30and reaching an unprecedented Arab and African semi-final.
00:01:34Achievements have continued since returning to
00:01:37the World Cup in 2018,
00:01:40charting a continuous Moroccan ascent on
00:01:44the world football map. Today, the Atlas Lions
00:01:48are knocking on the doors of the top five, in
00:01:51an achievement that reflects a path of brilliance and confirms
00:01:54that Moroccan football is no longer
00:01:57content with making history. It has begun
00:02:00to carve out a place for itself among
00:02:04the giants of the world. To
00:02:08remember
00:02:08the headlines.
00:02:13The US Deputy Secretary of State reiterated
00:02:16his country's determination to work with
00:02:19Morocco to find a final and lasting solution
00:02:23to the Moroccan Sahara issue, and reiterated
00:02:26his country's commitment to developing the southern provinces
00:02:30of the Kingdom. The American official's affirmation came after
00:02:34discussions he held with
00:02:36today of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation,
00:02:39and Moroccans Residing Abroad on the sidelines of
00:02:42the 11th session
00:02:45of the UN General
00:02:47Assembly. After the curtains fell
00:02:50on the legislative elections and the final
00:02:53results of the vote were released, the new
00:02:57House of Representatives map presents more than one possibility regarding
00:03:01possible alliances to form the next
00:03:04government. So, which scenarios do the seat calculations
00:03:07offer, and which alliances can
00:03:11produce a majority within the House
00:03:14of Representatives?
00:03:21The national football team begins
00:03:25its journey in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers
00:03:28207. 20 with a win against
00:03:31its Gabonese counterpart by two goals to

00:03:54The Berber Arab, the Berber
00:03:57Arab, every horse here moves with the spirit
00:04:01of Morocco, the power of Tbourida, the agility of the jumper
00:04:04over obstacles, and the magic of equestrian
00:04:07show evenings. Traditions, history,
00:04:10and sport under the high patronage of His Majesty King
00:04:14Mohammed VI, may God grant him victory. The Horse Show is renewed
00:04:17in its 17th edition from

00:04:28Ever since my child started early education, a lot has
00:04:32Here, changed.
00:04:35He gets happy when he knows he's going to
00:04:37class.
00:04:41the organization of the Africa He talks more, knows how to communicate with his friends, and his self-confidence
00:04:45has increased. Before, he was shy about expressing himself, but now he raises his hand
00:04:49to communicate, and he even relies on himself for many
00:04:52things. Frankly, I see the difference in him every day, and that's
00:04:56why I tell all parents that early education is free.
00:05:03The Ministry of National Education, Early Education, and Sports, with
00:05:06its partners, is working to provide early education throughout the Kingdom,
00:05:09in urban and rural areas. Enrollment
00:05:12is always open. You just need to go to the nearest
00:05:16educational institution, because the big dream starts with a small step. Today,
00:06:09the African Diaspora program highlights an exceptional
00:06:13personality who dedicated her life to serving development in
00:06:16Africa and supporting youth in achieving their ambitions.
00:06:19We meet Camille Bonnamassla, the Senegalese
00:06:22entrepreneur, owner of an inspiring Thank you for coming
00:06:26to see us. My name is Bonnamassla. I am a special envoy of the
00:06:30President of Sierra Leone, and I am also
00:06:33a representative
00:06:36minister in West Africa. The African object that I
00:06:39keep at home is my prayer mat.
00:06:43I carry it everywhere, and I think that faith
00:06:46is important, and so
00:06:50I take it everywhere. You know, there are many values in Africa, and
00:06:54I am, at the same time, the values that I
00:06:56received as an African are values of sharing,
00:06:59solidarity, and at the same
00:07:02time, especially sharing. That's also
00:07:06it, and these are the same values that I find today in Morocco. That's how we were
00:07:09educated, and it's this education that we especially had.
00:07:13Solidarity, we can't do anything without it, and helping our neighbor, and so as
00:07:17an African and a Muslim, I think these are
00:07:20things that were ingrained in us from a very young age,
00:07:23hospitality, sharing, education, especially, respect for
00:07:27elders, and it's very, very important for us, respect for
00:07:30adults, for elders. Listen, Morocco, I feel more at home than at home. After
00:07:34about twenty visits to this country, I decided to settle here with my
00:07:38family, and I think it's a very beautiful country. I...
00:07:42I believe strongly in this, I think that
00:07:46the development
00:07:48Africa can pass through Morocco.
00:07:51Morocco has everything. It has everything in Morocco. It has nothing
00:07:55to envy in Europe, and I believe strongly in this South-South cooperation,
00:07:59which is very important, okay. I
00:08:02really like this concept that we have always
00:08:06been told, that the South is a very, very good
00:08:10cooperation, and I think that Morocco
00:08:13is a super good country. Today, what's good about Morocco is
00:08:17that we are 3 hours from Dakar, we are 3 hours from Freetown,
00:08:21we are 3 hours from Guinea. We are a bit, and
00:08:24Morocco is a bit of my benchmark for going to Africa.
00:08:28And also what I like about this country is the openness, the
00:08:31kindness, the sharing, everything they have as values here, that we find
00:08:35the same values at
00:08:36home.
00:08:41who chose Casablanca as the headquarters for his current activity,
00:08:44born in
00:08:461985.
00:08:50it's, it's super important. There's an African proverb that says,
00:08:54"If you know where you're going, return to where you came from."
00:08:58I think knowing one's history is very, very important, and Nelson
00:09:01Mandela taught us that everything that is done for us, that others have chosen without
00:09:05us, is actually against us. On being active, I think that
00:09:09my origins, which I draw from the deepest
00:09:12African values that are ingrained in me, help me a lot to
00:09:16move forward in life because in these values there are many things: there's
00:09:19respect, there's education, there's sharing, there are many other things,
00:09:23and it's super important for me to be from these
00:09:27origins, to be African, to belong to this continent.
00:09:31And the continent is magnificent. Africa has everything.
00:09:33It has nothing to envy anywhere. Listen,
00:09:37when you take 70% of the world's gold comes
00:09:41from Africa, 70% of the world's diamonds come from Africa, wood from the
00:09:45world, water, land,
00:09:48everything else is youth. And so, the
00:09:51youth, and so all that remains is work, that we get to work and show
00:09:55everyone that together we can be stronger than everyone. I lived in
00:09:59Europe and I often said our grandparents went
00:10:02to France, they fought in the war for France, they returned
00:10:06with nothing at all. Our uncles
00:10:09built there, they created laws to explain to us. Of course, we are
00:10:13confronted when we are in European countries. I experienced
00:10:16racism, I experienced many, many other things, but I tell
00:10:20you, apart from all that, what is wonderful when you have values, when you
00:10:24believe in God, when... like Morocco, you feel that it doesn't have that, because it has a
00:10:27belief, which is God, and when it has God, it has no color.
00:10:31It has a God who allows us to love one another.
00:10:34Of course there are, there are discontented people everywhere, of course there are
00:10:38ignorant people everywhere, especially ignorance, because
00:10:41it's, it's what's important. You
00:10:44know, Mandela used to say that our greatest
00:10:47weapon in the world was education. And I think that once
00:10:51we are educated, once we have these values, we are good.
00:10:56He is considered one of the most prominent influential figures in the West African
00:10:59Economic and Monetary Union, a self-made man
00:11:03who built his success with steady steps
00:11:06and perseverance.
00:11:10professionally today, it's being able to
00:11:13want to carry out a project for Africans, to say that
00:11:17today I have a project of 10,000 jobs for these
00:11:21young Africans in the Sahara, and that
00:11:24today our states have a duty to help them
00:11:28and support them. So my project today
00:11:31is to say, I will create 10,000 jobs for these young people in
00:11:35several sectors so that they can, those who have gone on
00:11:38an adventure, can stay on the continent, that they be
00:11:41trained and can work here in Morocco or
00:11:45those who want to return home, that they can return. But it's
00:11:48important when there are young people, you know, when
00:11:52half of a population is under
00:11:5524 in Africa, I think we all need
00:11:58to think about supporting them, helping them, training them and giving them
00:12:02jobs, because it's a wealth that we have today. Europe is
00:12:05aging, everyone is aging. We say Africa, the
00:12:09next 50 years are Africa's 50 years, and I think when we talk about Africa's 50 years
00:12:12to say that there are young people, there is labor and they come
00:12:16to seek these young people today. I have already worked a lot in my country of origin,
00:12:20I never stopped, I always work in my country of origin. I was at
00:12:23the initiative of several. The first big project I
00:12:27carried out, which is very good, called Smart City, we raised
00:12:30about 5 million euros for parking, for
00:12:34parking, we created 200 jobs, and these are
00:12:38these kinds of projects that I continue to develop in
00:12:39Africa.
00:12:43He excelled in the fields of entrepreneurship, social solidarity,
00:12:46and economic diplomacy. He successfully led
00:12:49CBS France, contributing to providing employment
00:12:52opportunities for young people. "Today, I
00:12:55am a special envoy of the President of Sierra Leone. I work for a large group called
00:12:59Westminister, which deals with airport security.
00:13:03We are in 50 countries around the world. Listen, what I
00:13:07can bring to the continent today is the experience I
00:13:10gained. I created 200 jobs in Senegal. I deal with PPPs
00:13:14with communities. Today, I work for Westminister. I am
00:13:18a special envoy for the
00:13:19President, but I am
00:13:23also working in the office of the Vice President of Sierra
00:13:27Leone, and I think it's important today for these
00:13:30councils to say that Africa must help Africa. Africa
00:13:34has everything. So it's up to us to take our destiny and our
00:13:38continent into our own hands. And I today bring
00:13:41my added value, I've always done it for
00:13:45years, bringing something to my continent. Morocco is a very, very beautiful country,
00:13:48and I feel like I belong to this
00:13:52culture, which is already religious for me, and I feel the same
00:13:55African values that we have. And Morocco is a super beautiful country. I am
00:13:59happy to live there and be there, and I really
00:14:04the King, who makes a lot of effort for these
00:14:07relations between Africa and and and and other parts of the
00:14:11world. I know that he plays a great role today for African
00:14:14unity and for ECOWAS, and I think that his vision
00:14:17today for Morocco, he has it for all
00:14:21of Africa, and it is a pride to come to Morocco. It is
00:14:25a pride to have a King
00:14:27Mohammed VI who is
00:14:31euh I think many African heads of state should
00:14:34follow his example. We are in a country where the infrastructure
00:14:38is all okay. You know yesterday I have a friend who sent me
00:14:42to Business
00:14:44School in Morocco. It's among
00:14:48the 20. They will be in the ranking of the
00:14:51top 20 in the whole world for business.
00:14:57Morocco has everything, and so
00:15:00on education, on health, on infrastructure.
00:15:02infrastructures،
00:15:08And supporting development projects in a number of African
00:15:11countries, thus confirming his deep commitment
00:15:14to the African continent and its rising generations.
00:15:18Hassan El Bakouri, member of the council
00:15:21of the Hay Hassani district and a community activist at the district level.
00:15:25Hassani. Today,
00:15:28within the framework of, firstly, Morocco's relations
00:15:32in general and Moroccans' relations with our brothers from Sub-Saharan
00:15:35Africa, today I believe that the Africa Cup of Nations
00:15:39is not just a sporting event in football, but
00:15:45cultural, intellectual,
00:15:48context, there are mechanisms
00:15:53wonderful ecological space of Hassani, the park
00:15:57of Lake Oulfa, that we have a fan
00:16:00zone during the events of the Africa Cup of Nations, which will be
00:16:04a meeting that brings together
00:16:07Moroccan football fans, families, and football
00:16:11fans from other African nationalities, especially those residing in the Hay
00:16:14Hassani district, which witnesses a large presence of African
00:16:17communities from sub-Saharan Africa who are with us today, living with us,
00:16:21and we coexist with them. And this fan zone
00:16:26celebration during the events of the Africa Cup of Nations, an atmosphere of
00:16:29cohesion, an atmosphere of cultural exchange, an atmosphere
00:16:33of cultural and intellectual richness that will be more than just sports, and
00:16:37this occasion of the Africa Cup of Nations will also be a celebratory
00:16:41occasion to bring joy and happiness to all the guests who
00:16:45will attend with us in Morocco
00:16:48in this event, especially in the city of Casablanca. Of course,
00:16:51we will be lucky, God willing, that the Hay Hassani district
00:16:55will host this fan zone in partnership with a number of
00:16:58civil society organizations in Morocco
00:17:02and in Africa as well. And also with the participation of a number of
00:17:06parties that may contribute
00:17:09from the Hay Hassani district, the city of Casablanca, the region of Casablanca, and perhaps
00:17:12even some other parties can help as well, within the framework of, firstly,
00:17:16interacting with Morocco's dynamics in organizing such
00:17:19events. The Africa Cup of Nations is considered a demonstration,
00:17:23an experience, God willing, so that
00:17:26we can also be ready for the 2030 World Cup. And I repeat
00:17:29the idea, we must contribute to strengthening the nation's capabilities, and we will also contribute to
00:17:33raising the level of our image at the African level,
00:17:37and the world level. And the Africa Cup of Nations will be a very important station so that
00:17:41through these cultural, intellectual
00:17:45exchanges of cultures, there will be
00:17:48a place of celebration so that, God willing, we can all celebrate
00:17:52all the visitors to Morocco in the 2025
00:17:55Africa Cup of Nations, God willing.
00:17:57It's
00:18:01all the African nations to gather in Morocco. It's
00:18:04going to happen once every 20
00:18:08or 30 years, and so it's super important that we start there before reaching the World
00:18:11Cup. Thank God, everything is
00:18:14good. They are ready, the athletes are ready.
00:18:18I saw the stadiums that they renovated. I really
00:18:21congratulate the King for his extraordinary work. It's in this
00:18:25continuity that we love, that we love Morocco, and the
00:18:28development of Africa passes through it.
00:18:32Thank you very much, thank
00:18:33you very much.
00:18:41Today, Cela dedicates his experience and network
00:18:44of relationships to serving the continent and works passionately
00:18:47to build bridges of opportunity between youth, entrepreneurs,
00:18:51and investors to become partners in success and development.
00:18:55With his settlement in Morocco, he aims to empower immigrants
00:18:58residing in the Kingdom to acquire diverse professional
00:19:02skills, especially in the context of Morocco's preparation
00:19:05to host the 2000 World Cup.
00:19:21who is a friend with whom we share. I have many, many friends in Morocco
00:19:24here, whether it's Karim, whether it's
00:19:27Neymar, whether it's uh
00:19:30Jalal, these are people who are very, very dear to me.
00:19:34You know, we are all concerned about what's
00:19:38happening today around the world, and it's a
00:19:41wonderful chance that the AFCON is that this African
00:19:44gathering that brings together the whole continent is also organized in
00:19:47Morocco. And so, since I'm here, I took the initiative
00:19:51to organize this fan zone in a city
00:19:54like Oulfa or Souss-Massa, where there is a strong African community
00:19:57who are there. It's also a moment of joy, of
00:20:01celebration, of gathering around the ball, but it's
00:20:05solidarity, it's also sharing
00:20:07cultures, to see that Malians,
00:20:10Senegalese, Algerians, Tunisians,
00:20:13and other countries gather today
00:20:16for the essential, which is
00:20:19Cup of Nations. And I am today, uh
00:20:23with my friends, I thought, what can we bring
00:20:26today to this Africa Cup? It's
00:20:29the first thing, it's that, it's to organize a fan zone where all the
00:20:33communities will gather, will... watch the match, watch the match
00:20:37for free, okay, where
00:20:40they can culturally share their music,
00:20:44their cuisine,
00:20:47uh, objects of exchange, and that's the spirit
00:20:50of sports, okay? And for the
00:20:53World Cup, we said today that there are many
00:20:56young immigrants in Morocco here. It's being able to train them
00:21:00and that instead of them crossing the Atlantic to go, it's to
00:21:04work with them, train them here, more than 10,000 young people in
00:21:07trades such as construction, plumbing, trades, because
00:21:11there are many young people who come here too who have diplomas,
00:21:15who can work in administration. It's to say that all these young people, when they are trained,
00:21:18they don't need to go to Europe, they need to build here the
00:21:22infrastructure for the World Cup. It's our
00:21:26struggle and many young people too, it's to help them
00:21:30to have a training, to have a job,
00:21:33the day they return home, because we are in Africa, Africa
00:21:37is their home, we are all on the continent, but the days that a young Senegalese who
00:21:40comes to Morocco, who wants to cross the Atlantic, arrives in Morocco and is offered a
00:21:44training, a job, he can work with dignity, and above all
00:21:48I ask the authorities
00:21:50to help these young people integrate here, to give them a residence
00:21:54permit, even if it's temporary, so that they can work with dignity, earn
00:21:57a living to return. The idea for us is not for the continent to
00:22:01empty, not to cross the Atlantic to leave. But you
00:22:04know, young people, these young people don't leave for pleasure. When you are
00:22:08in the streets of Africa, a bit everywhere, when you see your mother selling
00:22:12peanuts, uh, fruits and fruits and earns 1
00:22:15euro a day to feed you, you are 21 years old, you are 20 years old, you have no more
00:22:19jobs. You have lost hope, you want to help your family, and all these young people
00:22:23who leave the diaspora, who go a
00:22:27bit everywhere in the world, they don't go for pleasure, they go to
00:22:30try to improve the living conditions of their family,
00:22:34but also their own
00:22:36survival. We are in the 21st century. There is no young person who doesn't want to have
00:22:40a family situation, who doesn't want to get married, who doesn't want to have
00:22:43a house, a car, and that's super
00:22:46important. Another aspect today on...
00:22:51So you have to understand that when you when you, there are many people
00:22:54who who talk about the exodus but because today they are confronted
00:22:58with serious problems. When you are a farmer, you live in Kenya and
00:23:02and the floods have destroyed all
00:23:05your field, what do you do? You go to the
00:23:08city. And I think we need to think about a good African
00:23:12model and to support our youth, our
00:23:15farmers, our livestock breeders, all the people who make the
00:23:18continent move and who do things.
00:23:20And above all, I have said it and I say it again, that we have all the wealth in Africa,
00:23:24we have gold, we have diamonds, we have land, we have water, and
00:23:28we have wood. You imagine, all that we lack today is that
00:23:32we have leaders like the King, who love the
00:23:35continent, who love the people and who can
00:23:38euh value what they have best on the
00:23:41continent. Because often we talk a lot about immigration, it's about
00:23:45a minority of people who want to leave and a
00:23:49majority of people who stay on the continent, who are not
00:23:52valued, who our states do not value. Look, I take the case of Morocco, whether
00:23:56it's Senegal, whether it's Mali, or Congo, today, when you arrive, most
00:24:00of the young people, they have their car, they are
00:24:03doing private cars, VTC, they transport
00:24:06people with companies with whom they work, whether it's
00:24:10today, Yango, Uber or other companies that are there,
00:24:14where these young people are fighting, thousands of young people who don't even want
00:24:18today to cross the Atlantic because they have
00:24:21found their way here. And I think that our
00:24:24leaders today in Africa, and this is what I often advise heads
00:24:28of state, is to value what we have best on the
00:24:31continent.
00:24:33Hey my big bro, ah thank you very much.
00:24:37Yes, it was quick, right? You saw all these young people
00:24:41who who come from Africa, from Senegal, who work tirelessly.
00:24:44You just have to call them and they come to tell you that all these young people
00:24:48who are here are not crazy people, they are not young people who want to leave,
00:24:52immigrate to Europe. They come here, they settle, they work
00:24:55honestly, and these are very honest and very brave young people. They are here
00:24:59to work, and so these are the people who must be supported. And you see the
00:25:03proof is that I ordered something from him, in 5 minutes he brought it to me, I paid
00:25:07him, and that's how they are, and thousands of young Africans who are fighting. Thank
00:25:11you very much, big bro, see you soon, right? Yes, yes, in fact, these are people who settle
00:25:14here. When you come to my kitchen, I have a Moroccan woman who cooks for
00:25:17me. We are making, madam is making
00:25:20food. And so we ordered Senegalese dishes
00:25:24today because my friends were arriving. We will finish with a tea that
00:25:27madam will make for us, and all that. And
00:25:30uh thank you very much. I also eat a lot of Moroccan food. Three or four times. On Fridays, however,
00:25:34it's Moroccan couscous. All my friends invite me, my friend Karim invites me all the
00:25:38time to Rabat, plus
00:25:41Jalal, to eat Moroccan dishes. After the meal, we
00:25:45go to the mosque, God willing, because I love to go to the
00:25:48mosque at 102. That's where I get inspired. But I also
00:25:51love this mosque because it has, I love this
00:25:54place, but at the same time, that's where I I'm doing my
00:25:57bath,
00:26:00that's TB and that's Yassa.
00:26:17do you like fish? Before this huge event, Sila plans to organize
00:26:20the African Forum for Economic Development, which is a
00:26:23unique event held within the fan zone during
00:26:27the African Nations Cup
00:26:292025.
00:26:32DG of the ADS group, I think it's a very good thing
00:26:36to have this fan zone, it's Morocco hosting Africa,
00:26:39Africa hosting Africa, it's a good
00:26:42thing, it's football and Africa winning at the same time,
00:26:46that's why we support uh
00:26:49the initiative
00:26:51and I think the party will be beautiful for all of Africa,
00:26:55thank you, I think once again Morocco is
00:26:59showing its leadership, we are...
00:27:02friends of Morocco, because Morocco is a model of southern
00:27:06development, and I think that by organizing the World
00:27:10Cup, Morocco once again showed its
00:27:13leadership, and if we
00:27:16look today at the world, even African football, Morocco
00:27:19has just won most of the cups, that shows
00:27:23that by investing in infrastructure, in human
00:27:27capital, we can be a champion, I think Morocco is showing
00:27:30that it is...
00:27:36The forum will be a meeting place for economic actors,
00:27:40institutions, and African individuals with the aim of highlighting
00:27:43an enterprising, innovative,
00:27:46and successful friends in the world,
00:27:49listen, one day a
00:27:53guy came to see Mandela, Mandela who spent twenty years in
00:27:56prison, even more, and he looks at Mandela
00:27:59and says, "How did you manage to hold on?" for all
00:28:03that time, years in prison, today you're smiling, and Mandela tells
00:28:06him, we all have beautiful
00:28:10lives, I think that this is a life lesson to
00:28:13say that we thank the Lord every
00:28:17day for giving us life, and I have my
00:28:20friend, he often tells me, what if they
00:28:23gave you 10 million
00:28:27dollars today, they say:
