The Committee for National Renaissance and Action for Sovereignty is challenging the management of public resources, the response to armed violence, and the conduct of the electoral process.
The Committee for Renaissance and National Action for Sovereignty (CRANS) called on Wednesday for the immediate resignation of stand-in Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé and his team, accusing them of failing to protect the population and serving private interests at the expense of public assets.
"Corruption has reached its peak," the organization stated in a press release. It denounced "astronomical contracts" awarded without competitive bidding, personal trips allegedly financed by the public treasury, and lavish spending by de facto authorities.
The committee also denounces an "inconceivable laxity towards gangs" and believes that the inadequate government response could be interpreted as a form of complicity. It is outraged that foreign forces are intervening to help the population while national institutions struggle to guarantee its safety.
Violence, massacres, and forced displacement are compounding a social crisis marked by the high cost of living. According to the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) analysis published on October 28, more than 5.94 million people will experience acute food insecurity at crisis level or worse between September 2026 and February 2027. CRANS sees this as a manifestation of the authorities' inability to meet the population's basic needs.
In the electoral arena, the organization accuses Prime Minister Pope Twèl of wanting to "perpetuate his hold on power" by exerting control over the electoral institution and favoring controversial figures. It considers these practices incompatible with administrative neutrality, equality of candidates, and the independence of the bodies responsible for the election.
The committee cites Article 21 of the 1987 Constitution, which defines as high treason the theft by a public official of state property entrusted to their management. It also refers to the 2014 law on the prevention and suppression of corruption and the United Nations Convention against Corruption.
The organization also points out that Article 19 of the Constitution requires the State to guarantee the right to life, health, and respect for human dignity, while Article 22 specifically recognizes the rights to housing, education, food, and social security. It considers that the erosion of these rights engages the political responsibility of the transitional leaders.
"For these reasons, CRANS calls on all the vital forces of the nation to demand the immediate departure of this de facto irresponsible and corrupt government," the statement concludes.
The declaration is signed in particular by Marie Antoinette Gautier, Winie Edugène Robin, Myrtha Désulmé, Venise Dubique Guiteau, Don Rocher, Bastien Jean and Philippe Laporte.
