Tenure as Prime Minister (2011-2014) The pinnacle of Omer Beriziky's political career began on November 2, 2011, when he was appointed Prime Minister by then-transitional President Andry Rajoelina.
Beriziky, perceived as a consensus candidate acceptable to the major political factions, including the camp of ousted President Marc Ravalomanana, was tasked with an enormous challenge.
Following the election of President Hery Rajaonarimampianina in January 2014, Omer Beriziky formally tendered his resignation as Prime Minister on January 16, 2014, having fulfilled the core mandate of the transition government.
