Morocco holds legislative elections in 2026, making a leadership change likely as Akhannouch's coalition faces pressure; markets price him 93% out.
Moroccan Prime Minister Aziz Akhannouch announced the end of his term on February 7, 2026, formally signaling the wind-down of the government he has led since the September 8, 2021 legislative election, when his National Rally of Independents (RNI) swept to power with 102 seats. Under Morocco's constitution the current legislature runs a five-year mandate, placing the next parliamentary election in the autumn of 2026 and making a change at the head of government the base-case procedural outcome. The question of whether Aziz Akhannouch out as Morocco Prime Minister materializes by the December 31 deadline now turns almost entirely on the electoral calendar rather than on any confidence vote or coalition collapse. [The New Arab, Feb 7]
Akhannouch, a billionaire businessman, has governed through a period of active diplomacy, hosting Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and signing bilateral agreements in Madrid on December 4, 2025, with Sánchez hailing Morocco as a "key strategic partner" for EU southern policy on January 13, 2026. That external strength has not fully insulated his coalition domestically, where public frustration over cost-of-living pressures and social spending has weighed on the RNI-led bloc heading into the campaign. No early dissolution or emergency legislation has been filed to shorten the mandate, meaning the transition remains tied to the scheduled ballot and the subsequent royal appointment of a new premier by King Mohammed VI.

As of July 31, 2026, Akhannouch remained the sitting premier, managing files including an EU protectionist push in the automobile sector that has worried Rabat's exporters such as Renault and BMW. Whether Aziz Akhannouch out as Morocco Prime Minister is confirmed before year-end depends on the timing of the autumn vote and how quickly a successor government is formed; a post-election handover, or even Akhannouch's own reappointment, would resolve the milestone. The key markers to watch are the official election date decree, the filing deadlines for party lists, and the King's designation of the next head of government. [Africa Intelligence, Jul 31]
