Power outage in Toamasina: Many villages showed public protests

The people of Toamasina are angry about the power outage in Toamasina since Tuesday. Mangarano, Barikadimy, Morarano Crossroads, Ambolomadinika, and other villages are among the villages where this happened. This interruption started at 8:00 in the morning and did not end until 7:00 in the evening except for the villages that never returned, including those that went on strike. The security forces established security in this public uprising, and the tear gas grenades exploded during it. The people are very worried that various criminal activities will rise in Toamasina during the power outage. The people responded by throwing stones because they felt they were being neglected, because after the death of the president and his wife who came to Toamasina on the weekend of March 8, there was a power outage. this is how the people of Toamasina live. According to the information received, the problem that caused the power outage for almost four days is the result of non-payment of the debt of the company ENELEC, which is the electricity supplier. The city of Toamasina searched for all the ideas to solve the problem, so starting on Friday, the lights in Toamasina came back on all day long. It is not known whether the debt problem with Enelec has been resolved or not, but for this company, the power outage will continue for a week. We will see the continuation of this matter, but if the people are already angry about the situation, then their isolation will continue if the interruption happens again.
