Madagascar’s President Michael Randrianirina, who came to power following mass protests in October 2025, has dismissed his prime minister and the entire cabinet on Monday, his spokesperson said in a statement.
Randrianirina seized control of the Indian Ocean island nation in the wake of protests that forced out his predecessor, Andry Rajoelina.
“The President will shortly proceed with the appointment of a new prime minister, following the procedures set out by the constitution,” Harry Laurent Rahajason, director of communication of the Presidency, said in the statement, without giving reasons for the presidential action.
