STADE D’ANDOHATAPENAKA – A coup de thumb by Andry Rajoelina

53 days before the opening of the eleventh edition of the JIOI of 2023 that Madagascar will host from August 25 to September 4 in Antananarivo, the Makis stadium in Andohatapenaka, following the descent of the presidential couple to the place last Saturday, will make the object of an improvement going in the standards worthy of the name with regard to the central stand. Some members of the technical team of the presidency went to the Makis stadium of Andohatapenaka yesterday Sunday to take measurements on the spot. “Installations of new chairs like those at the Barea stadium are planned and to be completed for the reception of rugby matches at the next edition of the 2023 JIOI at home. The Makis stadium in Andohatapenaka will be closed after the quarter-final matches this Sunday and all the matches scheduled to be played there will be transferred to the Malacam stadium in Antanimena,” says Marcel Rakotomalala, president of Malagasy Rugby.
