Michèle Ratsivalaka challenges her dismissal 16/07/2009 | 16:23:08

Antananarivo's mayor has been fired by the city council but refuses her dismissal. Michèle Ratsivalaka estimates that only the president of the HAT, Andry Rajoelina, who appointed her, will be able to decide her fate.

 

A genuine duel begins between the acting mayor and the city council. Now that the capital city is in a pathetic state, the situation might complicate even more. 

  

Michèle Ratsivalaka has been dismissed by the city council. Her team's results after four months of management of Antananarivo didn't satisfy the members of the city council.  

 

The purification of Antananarivo city during the latest months has been deceiving. The garbage has been overflowing the trash ferries. The wandering merchants occupy the sidewalks on a daily basis. And the holes are more and more frequent in the streets of the city.  

 

The president of the Transition already warned the town hall's team but the situation didn't really evolve. The replacement of Michèle Ratsivalaka has been repeatedly whispered in the backstage. Her substitute's name has even already been published by the local press. But it took several weeks to the city council to take the decision of her dismissal.  

 

Anyway a whole legal battle has begun between the acting mayor and the city council.
