Lusaka \u2014 An emissary of ousted Madagascar leader Marc Ravalomanana has conveyed the ex-ruler’s commitment to abide by the outcome of Sunday’s SADC talks meant to unlock the political crisis in the Indian Ocean island.<\/p>\n

Mr Ravalomanana was toppled in 2009 by disc jockey-cum-politician Andry Rajoelina in an army-backed coup following weeks of anti-government protests.<\/p>\n

Zambia’s Foreign Affairs minister Kabinga Pande confirmed that he met Mr Ravalomanana’s envoy in Lusaka.<\/p>\n

“Ravalomanana’s envoy came to support the meeting we are holding in Botswana to discuss the political situation in Madagascar.<\/p>\n

“The envoy came to encourage us about the stand that Zambia has taken,” said Mr Pande. However, he did not name the emissary.<\/p>\n

Mr Ravalomanana, 61, currently on self-imposed exile in South Africa, faces a four-year jail term passed against him in absentia for alleged abuse of office.<\/p>\n

The 15-member regional bloc, Southern African Development Community (SADC), heads of state summit last month mandated Zambia’s President Rupiah Banda and Mozambique’s ex-president Joaquim Chissano to convene a meeting of rival stakeholders in Madagascar.<\/p>\n

Double standards<\/strong><\/p>\n

After Mr Rajoelina accused SADC of applying double standards and rubbished Sunday’s meeting in Botswana, President Banda warned the 36-year-old leader and his rivals against “wasting our time”.<\/p>\n

President Banda, who also chairs the SADC organ on politics, defence and security, said the Gaborone meeting would give Madagascar stakeholders a chance to “to talk to each since they don’t talk to each other”.<\/p>\n
