Acting President of Madagascar[]
On September 7, 2018, President Hery Rajaonarimampianina submitted his resignation from the presidency, an act required by law in order to participate in the upcoming presidential election. As a result, Rivotovao, the President of the Senate, assumed the role of President, a position he held until the inauguration of the then President-Elect Andry Rajoelina .[1][2][3][4] On September 9, the United Nations Secretary-General, António Guterres, reaffirmed his support for Rivotovao.[5]
