We help as we can, on our own scale, and no debate should tarnish everyone’s actions. Since a terrible earthquake struck Morocco on the night of September 8 to 9, 2023, judgments have taken up much more space than solidarity… Indeed, since the tragedy which left nearly 3,000 dead and more than 5,600 injured, many personalities spoke out and decided to help, as best they could, the Maghreb country. But these actions are sometimes not enough to silence the detractors.
A situation that he also wished to deplore Gad Elmaleh this Saturday, September 16, 2023. In fact, the 52-year-old comedian was invited in the show C the weekly on France 5. During his visit, the father of Noé and Raphaël wanted to make a strong clarification, annoyed by the speeches he has received since the earthquake struck the country that is so dear to him.
“Now is not the time for debate. I hear a lot of comments on how Morocco should behave, we are not in that! It’s pride, ego. When we help, it’s not to be thanked.”Earthquake in Morocco: @Gad Elmaleh In #CLHebdopic.twitter.com/CHCFy4SUB7

Gad Elmaleh deplores the judgments of some
“Everyone does what they can, as they want, and as they see fit. I believe it is important to remember this in France, where we sometimes believe we can give lessons to an entire country”, he said at first, a little upset. Indeed, Gad Elmaleh reminds that “Now is not the time for debate.” “I hear a lot of comments on the way Morocco should behave, on the conduct of the government, on the role of his majesty the king… All this is of no interest, it is pride, “It’s selfishness. When we help, it’s because we’re reaching out.”he concluded, still angry.
As a reminder, the comedian, like Jamel Debbouze and Arthur, works to help Morocco and the victims. Gad Elmaleh notably announced that a show would soon take place to support Morocco. “The Moroccan government created ‘Fund 126’ to provide emergency assistance to the victims of the tragedy that struck the country. We will donate all proceeds to this fund. All united and united”, he indicated on his social networks on September 13. He will organize this major event at the Dôme de Paris on October 2, in the company of Redouane Bougheraba and Roman Frayssinet.
