The course of the electoral campaign is getting tenser, now that the showdown is a little more than a week away. In Toamasina city (East), presidential candidat Hery Rajaonarimampianina's headquarters have been set on fire on Monday evening. Outraged militants were already longing for raiding the compound on the day before but the police forces kept them at a distance.

Presidential candidate Hery Rajaonarimampianina’s electoral base in Toamasina set on fire

Is it all about a mere misunderstanding or could candidate Hery Rajaonarimampianina’s henchmen supported by the transitional leader’s TGV party be willing to trigger a spiral of violence in order to ruin the elections? Every one knows from previous experience that no possibility may be ruled out no more. As a matter of fact, violence has been increasingly gaining the upper hand over the last few days. The capital city walls are being littered with verbal threats directed at presidential candidates, and clues progressively lead to the conclusion that the ruling power is getting concerned by Dr. Jean Louis Robinson’s growing popularity boosted by the whole of the Ravalomanana political sphere. Some of the transitional leader’s supporters would now be having their skull session for the sake of thwarting the elections on October 25th, or, could they not avail, manipulating the results.  Presidential candidates, ye be on the watch.
