The inauguration ceremony of the Coliseum in Manjakamiadana and the official reopening to the general public of Rovan’Antananarivo, renamed Rovan’i Madagasikara yesterday was an opportunity for the Head of State to defend himself on the delicate subject of his dual nationality, revealed last week. A subject that has sparked heated controversy and continues to fuel debate.
“No one can erase the fact that we are Malagasy and no one can change the Malagasy blood that flows through our veins”, declared Andry Rajoelina, as if to retort to the critics.
In the current political context, the folkloric reopening of the Rova a week before the celebration of Independence Day comes at the right time for Andry Rajoelina, who took this opportunity to counter-attack his detractors. A response, however, which will not really be able to appease the frustration and anger of certain citizens who are tired of the political and economic situation.
For some opposition parties, the question of the dual nationality of the President of the Republic is only the straw that could break the camel’s back. The state has struggled to define priorities in terms of social and economic development. The road, the prices of necessities, care in hospitals should come before the Manarapenitra stadiums and the bling bling comment on the observers.
