Bongani Bingwa speaks to Professor Gilbert Khadiagala, Director of the African Centre for the Study of the United States at Wits University, about Madagascar’s deepening political crisis following President Andry Rajoelina’s decision to dissolve Parliament amid growing unrest. What began as public frustration over water and power shortages, unemployment, and corruption has escalated into nationwide protests, with reports of parts of the military siding with demonstrators. With the president’s authority under threat, Khadiagala unpacks whether this marks a democratic reset, a constitutional crisis, or a continuation of Madagascar’s turbulent political history.
