If the Koekelbergse mayor Ahmed Laaouej (PS) within a year and a half proves that he is the English is powerful, then he gets a special reward: the account name “Koekelberg” on Twitter. That promises an internet user Vincent Verouden on Twitter. He intervened in a heated online discussion between the mayor Laaouej and Flemish member of Parliament, Karl Vanlouwe (N-VA).
Mayor Laaouej and Vanlouwe started yesterday to bicker on Twitter. This was prompted by a tweet from Vanlouwe on the introduction of conscription in Morocco. As was the concern that even young people with a Belgian and Moroccan nationality to their time in the army had to sit out, but those fears proved to be unfounded. Nevertheless, shared Vanlouwe yesterday a news article about the matter with the caption: “you have That with the double nationality. You now not [to] complain.” the
His tweet was also noted by Laaouej, that the message intended as “nepnieuws” and the reaction of Vanlouwe “typical for the class to be” called.
Évidemment, la NVA ne va pas reprendre les déclarations officielles qui démentent cette fakenews. Exemplatif du populism… https://t.co/AxTPsatae8 https://t.co/ggiaqyeVTG

That shot at the Flemish parliament immediately going down the wrong way. “How about your knowledge of Dutch as the mayor of a Brussels municipality?”, bite Vanlouwe. “Fake news, populism, racism?” As Brussels mayor would Laaouej in both French and Dutch must be able to express.

In the hours after that were the two different blame. Also other N-VA-leaders, including Theo Francken, moeiden in the debate.

The discussion had, however, a surprising turn when an internet user Vincent Verouden suddenly tussenkwam. He gave the Koekelbergse mayor the opportunity to once and for all to prove. “If you are within 18 months correctly and fluently speaks Dutch (which I will review), the municipality of Koekelberg, the Twitter account @Koekelberg gift!”, according to the man.
Dear mr Mayor of @Koekelberg, go on this challenge: if, within 18 months correctly and fluently speaks Dutch (which I will review), then the municipality of Koekelberg, the Twitter account @Koekelberg gift! With kind regards Vincent @BRUZZbe @BX1_Actu

He had the account a while ago created, but used it not, he told later to Bruzz.be. Therefore he thought there was more to the name to give to the church. A so-called ‘Twitterhandle’ is indeed unique: as long as Vincent the Koekelberg account continues to manage the branch there is no claim to make. So far, it seems Koekelberg also not active on Twitter. the
“When I saw this discussion passing on Twitter. I had always heard that Laaouejs English is not good. If that is so, of course, that’s good news. I wait now a bit, I would like to hear. If the mayor is indeed fluent Dutch talk, the municipality of me the account name,” admits he.

Laaouej has until now not addressed the challenge. However, he took a little bit of Dutch over in one of the later tweets to the address of Vanlouwe. “Of course, it is necessary [to know] as a Belgian patriot,” he wrote. the
On Bruzz confirms he’s “in pretty good English” that he was the issue indeed is important. “I followed all of two times an intensive language course at the well-known Ceran institute. As a leader in the Room and the mayor, I think the knowledge of English is absolutely necessary,” said Laaouej.
