Polls open in Madagascar presidential election amid calls for boycott
epaselect epa10977933 Madagascar President Andry Rajoelina (C) casts his vote for the presidential election at Ecole Agricole Ambatobe, in Antananarivo, Madagascar, 16 November 2023. Rajoelina, one of 13 candidates on the ballot, is running for a second term. Ten of the other candidates have called on voters to boycott the elections after it was revealed that Rajoelina had acquired French nationality in 2014, which, under local law, meant that the president should have lost his Madagascan nationality and disqualify him to run for re-election.
