Monja Roindefo criticizes the HAT; retaliation from a pissed off former Premier

The more hindered or intimidated Monja Roindefo and his relatives are, the better the opponent’s boots are apparently suiting him. The self proclaimed “defender of the year 2009’s popular struggle” is now criticizing a regime which kicks him out as a “legal Prime Minister”, while recalling that the High Constitutional Court provided legitimacy to the transition so far that the HAT leader and his Prime Minister are being held in charge during the whole of the transitional period. As he was ruled out by the Maputo agreements, Monja Roindefo believes that he is supposed to recover his position now that these agreements are themselves history.

Monja Roindefo Zafitsimivalo repeatedly criticizes the dictating regime on air; denouncing the political calculation behind the “Tsena mora” program: “where is the due call for bidding, since state money is being used for this decoy?” He challenged this cheap goods operation led by the TGV, labeled as a “personal shop” financed by state assets. Monja Roindefo is arguing that somebody queuing for hours in order to buy a miserable couple of kilos of rice is losing his time, for having been entitled to much more, had he been working as usual.  In other words, this program would lead people to drop more of dignity than to win anything else.

Monja Roindefo equally denounced a unilaterally decided electoral calendar, as well as the fake referendum. In this sense he is pledging the opposition’s three political spheres holding this popular consultation to be everything but the solution to the crisis. According to Monja Roindefo, the International community will not recognize this process, the African Union is certainly going to emphasize the democratic requests stated by the Organization of French speaking countries.

The nature of the “change” is a dividing the perpetrators of the year 2009’s militarily supported putsch. Monja Roindefo believes that the HAT is going the wrong way forward, while straining to enforce a referendum and a communal election, both very much controversial. He denounced the lack of professionalism as well as the wasting of public assets for a lost cause. The HAT’s former Prime Minister, appointed outdoors on the Place of May 13th, now holds for granted that the HAT led elections are neither free nor transparent nor democratic, although Andry Rajoelina himself was boasting that he would make them a model in Africa.
