A member of the local council in Benikhiarad, Samir Hashshashi, has called on the relevant authorities to accelerate the completion of stalled sports projects in the region. In a statement to Diwan FM, Hashshashi emphasized the need to diagnose the actual causes of the delays and take necessary measures to overcome the challenges. He highlighted that several sports projects in the region have been stalled for a long time.
Hashshashi specifically mentioned the project to build a handball stadium in the new Zawia town, which has not yet started despite being included in the 2021 budget and allocated 300,000 dinars in 2022. He noted that the project's cost has increased to 380,000 dinars due to delays. The council member expressed concern over the slow pace of work and urged the authorities to take decisive action.
The local council member also pointed to the delayed completion of the Benikhiarad municipal handball stadium, citing the non-delivery of artificial grass and the slow pace of work. Additionally, he mentioned that work on the mini-football stadium in Bir Drassen has been halted due to issues related to contractor payments and customs procedures for the artificial grass.
Hashshashi stressed the importance of completing these sports projects, which are essential for the region's youth. He urged the authorities to take the necessary decisions to prevent further delays and ensure the timely completion of the projects. The council member's statements highlight the challenges faced by local communities in Tunisia in implementing development projects.
The region of Benikhiarad is part of the Nabel governorate, which has seen various development projects in recent years. However, the slow pace of project implementation has been a source of frustration for local residents and officials. Hashshashi's call for action reflects the growing concerns about the impact of delayed projects on the region's development.
The Tunisian government has been working to improve infrastructure and services in various regions, including the Nabel governorate. However, the implementation of projects has often been hampered by bureaucratic delays and funding issues. The case of Benikhiarad highlights the need for more effective project management and coordination between different authorities.
The outcome of Hashshashi's appeal remains to be seen, but it is clear that the local community is eager to see the sports projects completed. The completion of these projects would not only provide new facilities for local athletes but also contribute to the region's economic and social development.
