Several hundred subscribers to the housing program of the AADL 2 (2013) rental-purchase formula of the wilaya of Algiers, having filed appeals for various reasons at the level of the Ministry of Housing and not having received their assignment certificate, are launching an appeal to the President of the Republic to intervene and accelerate the total completion of the assignments.
In an open letter addressed to the President of the Republic, these subscribers, from several municipalities in Algiers and who are part of quota 7, say they are neglected and marginalized by the officials of the Ministry of Housing but also by the National Agency for the Improvement and Development of Housing (AADL). The latter affirm that they are still waiting for the granting of the allocation certificates, crucial documents indicating the precise location of the housing, the floor, the apartment number as well as the number of rooms.
“After their appeals were accepted by the Ministry of Housing, hundreds of subscribers, having paid for several of them up to three installments, are waiting for their allocations to benefit from their housing. Unfortunately, no follow-up has been given to our grievances to date. This is unacceptable,” indicated to the Young Independent Smail, one of the subscribers. The protester stated that the subscribers in question have expressed their fed-upness and denounce “the inability of the AADL Agency to implement the promises of the Minister of Housing, announced on various occasions and in the media, requiring the issuance of allocation certificates to all remaining subscribers before July 5, 2024, the date of opening of registrations for AADL 3.”
“After all the doors were closed in our faces and we no longer found an ear that would listen to our demands, we appealed to the President of the Republic, in his capacity as the country’s first judge, to intervene and respond to our demands as soon as possible,” reads the letter addressed to the President of the Republic.
Subscribers consider that this state of affairs is a “violation” of the instructions of the Minister of Housing, but it also harms them as subscribers, thus prolonging their suffering which precedes obtaining their right to housing.
“This violation harms the credibility of the Ministry of Housing and gives the impression that ministerial instructions have become simple populist speeches intended for consumption,” the protesters state in their open letter.
“We ask you, Mr. President, as you have always promised us, to intervene in order to resolve this crucial issue for us, and to issue orders that are in the interest of the subscribers, in order to benefit from the assignment certificates as soon as possible,” the subscribers conclude. It should be recalled that the latter had chosen their accommodation at three sites in Algiers (Réghaïa, El-Harrach and Sidi Abdallah).
