AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Opposition Pushback: Madagascar’s political temperature is rising again after opposition MP Antoine Rajerison asked the High Constitutional Court to remove President Michael Randrianirina, alleging “serious and repeated” constitutional violations and abuse of power, with critics pointing to stalled promised reforms since the military colonel took over in October following youth protests. Security Concerns: Rajerison’s petition warns the country is “on the verge of rupture,” as rights groups raise alarms over arrests and heavy-handed responses to renewed, mostly youth-led demonstrations. Regional Football Footnote: In a separate governance beat, Madagascar’s Alfred Randriamanampisoa was elected COSAFA vice-president, joining a new southern Africa football leadership team. Environment Watch: Meanwhile, a WCS Makira Natural Park office in northeastern Madagascar was reportedly set on fire on May 4 amid alleged clashes tied to patrols and illegal logging.
