Varakashi4ED has condemned the coup taking place in Madagascar, declaring full solidarity with the Southern African Development Community (SADC) in rejecting the attempted overthrow of constitutional order in the Republic of Madagascar.

"We reaffirm our unwavering commitment to constitutionalism, peace, and democratic governance across the region," the movement said in a statement.

"The sanctity of electoral processes and the rule of law must be upheld without compromise. Any attempt to subvert the will of the people through unconstitutional means threatens not only national stability but also regional cohesion and progress."

Varakashi4ED commended SADC's principled stance and its call for calm and inclusive dialogue.

As a movement rooted in unity, discipline, and development, Varakashi4ED urged all stakeholders in Madagascar to prioritize national interest, respect institutional frameworks, and pursue peaceful resolution through legitimate channels.

"Let this moment serve as a reminder that the future of our region lies in the hands of those who choose dialogue over division, and progress over power struggles," the statement continued.

"Together, we defend democracy. Together, we build Africa."

According to reports, the military in Madagascar, with support from sections of the population, has forced the president to flee the country. The armed forces are now reportedly forming an interim administration comprising soldiers and police to govern for two years before holding elections.
