Head of state
Verified
A new government is being formed. Fatima Ezzahra El Mansouri was appointed Head of Government on 29 September 2026, but as of 13 October 2026 her ministers had not been appointed. The cabinet listed is the outgoing Akhannouch government as shown on the official maroc.ma government page, which still names Aziz Akhannouch as Head of Government and El Mansouri as Minister of National Territory Planning, Housing and City Policy; neither of those two entries is repeated here because no page opened confirms either office is still held. The official cg.gov.ma site refused automated access. Party affiliations of the outgoing ministers are not recorded.
