Algiers, Algeria | September 17th, 2024 — In a solemn and historic ceremony held at the Palace of the Nations, Abdelmadjid Tebboune was officially sworn in as President of the Republic on Tuesday, marking the commencement of his second term in office. The ceremony was attended by top state officials and representatives of Algeria’s highest institutions, embodying a moment of unity and national continuity.
The event began with the recitation of verses from the Holy Quran, followed by the official announcement from Omar Belhadj, President of the Constitutional Court, declaring the final results of the presidential election. With an overwhelming victory, Tebboune was re-elected with 84.30% of the votes, demonstrating the profound trust placed in him by the Algerian people.
In a moment of deep significance, President Tebboune, with his right hand placed on the Holy Quran, took the constitutional oath, reciting the sacred words of the pledge as dictated by Tahar Mamouni, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. The oath-taking formalizes his role as guardian of the Algerian state and its people, marking the official start of his second term.
As stipulated in Article 89 of the Algerian Constitution, the President of the Republic swears an oath “before the people, in the presence of the nation’s highest institutions, during the week following his election.” This moment, one of national reverence, signals Tebboune’s immediate assumption of presidential duties.
A Commitment to Algeria’s Future
During the ceremony, Tebboune reaffirmed his dedication to the guiding principles of the Algerian nation. His oath, rooted in the ideals of the 1954 November Revolution, reflects his steadfast commitment to the sacrifices of Algeria’s martyrs and to the preservation of national integrity, unity, and sovereignty.
In accordance with Article 90 of the Constitution, the terms of the presidential oath encapsulate a profound responsibility: “Faithful to the ultimate sacrifices and sacred memory of our martyrs, and to the eternal ideals of the November Revolution, I swear by Almighty Allah to uphold and exalt Islam, to defend the Constitution, to safeguard the continuity of the State, and to ensure the normal functioning of institutions and the constitutional order.” Tebboune further pledged to strengthen Algeria’s democratic process, defend the free will of the people, preserve the territorial integrity of the nation, protect fundamental human and civil rights, and tirelessly pursue the development and prosperity of the Algerian people.
In this declaration, Tebboune also committed to working toward the great ideals of justice, liberty, and global peace, acknowledging the sacred role of Algeria on the world stage. His words resonated as a call to unity and a renewed pledge to lift Algeria to even greater heights.
Looking Ahead: The Challenges and Opportunities of a New Term
As Tebboune embarks on his second term, he inherits both the achievements and challenges of his first presidency. Having restored stability and pursued ambitious reforms, his leadership now enters a new phase, defined by a commitment to building a modern and prosperous Algeria. The president’s re-election serves as a mandate to continue economic diversification, foster social equity, and ensure that Algeria’s voice remains influential in global affairs.
In the face of multidimensional regional and international challenges, President Tebboune has emphasized the importance of a robust and sovereign state, with a resilient economy that serves the welfare of all its citizens. His vision for Algeria is clear: a nation strong in its unity, secure in its borders, and prosperous in its development.
As the president continues to steer the country forward, Algerians look to the future with renewed hope, confident in his leadership and in Algeria’s rightful place among the world’s respected nations. The weight of this historic moment, carried by the solemn oath and the collective aspirations of the people, marks the dawn of a new chapter in Algeria’s proud history.
