I think ex-President Ravalomanana ought to just wait for elections. He
should keep the pressure on Rajoelina to perform for the people of Madagascar but
he should not engage in demonstrations that will present obstacles to the
country returning to normalcy. There were legitimate complaints against his
rule (whether he was elected or not) and more citizens were evidently aversed
than supported him. The military is part of the citizenry too and if you take
their numbers out of the equation, those citizens who desire Ravalomanana's
summary recall were approx. twice those who wished he stayed. Give it up Ravo.
Keep the pressure on. But allow Rajo to govern. The citizens will be able to
discern your comaparative worths. Haruna.
Ousted Madagascar leader defiant
Now it is Andry Rajoelina who faces daily protests against his rule
Deposed Madagascan President Marc Ravalomanana has urged supporters to unite
to save the nation in his first comments since his overthrow last week.
In a message sent to a rally in the capital Antananarivo he described his
removal from power as a coup.
He is in Swaziland ahead of next week's meeting by regional leaders to
discuss possible sanctions against Madagascar.
Madagascar's new leader, Andry Rajoelina, has offered reconciliation talks
with allies of the ousted leader.
'Destroying our country'
In a pre-recorded message played to around 10,000 supporters, Mr
Ravalomanana said: "It is up to us, it is up to you, it is up to me... to save the
nation, defend the union and our national unity."
Marc Ravalomanana quit last week after soldiers stormed his offices
"Madagascar was on the road to development and now they are destroying our
country with their coup."
The new military-backed government of President Rajoelina, who is facing
daily protests and a growing international backlash against his rise to power,
said reconciliation talks were scheduled for 2-3 April.
Members of Mr Ravalomanana's political party declined to say if they would
join the proposed dialogue, Reuters news agency reports.
Regional power South Africa said on Wednesday it would support sanctions
against Madagascar at Monday's South African Development Community meeting.
South African Foreign Minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma told reporters: "We
support the non-recognition [of Madagascar], we support pressure including
whatever might be agreed, sanctions."
The African Union has already announced Madagascar's suspension, while the
United States and European Union have described Mr Rajoelina's accession as a
coup.
Mr Ravalomanana, 59, resigned as president on 17 March, clearing the way for
Mr Rajoelina to take power after a bitter three-month power struggle during
which around 100 civilians died.
The former disc jockey, 34, who spent nearly two years as Antananarivo
mayor, is Africa's youngest president.
Still six years too young to be president under the current constitution, he
has promised new elections within two years after a new charter is adopted,
but this has failed to satisfy donors.
