MADAGASCAR: Attempt to seize power illegally 'under way

October 13, 2025

|

The Star

MADAGASCAR'S President Andry Rajoelina yesterday said an "attempt to seize power illegally and by force" was underway, a day after a contingent of soldiers joined thousands of anti-government protesters in the capital.

Soldiers based in the outskirts of Antananarivo on Saturday morning called on security units to "join forces" and to "refuse orders to shoot", repudiating the violent crackdown on youth-led protests that have rocked the Indian Ocean island for more than two weeks.

Soldiers clashed with gendarmes outside a barracks and rode into the city on army vehicles to join the demonstrators on the symbolic Place du 13 Mai in front of Antananarivo's city hall, where they were welcomed with cheers and calls for Rajoelina to resign.
