The colonial government imprisoned him from 1946 to 1950 for his affiliation with Jiny. He formed the Madagascar for the Malagasy (MONIMA) party in 1958 and successfully campaigned for the seat of mayor in Toliara, a position he held from 1959 to 1961.

Jaona instigated the 1971-72 rotaka farmer and student protests that successfully forced Tsiranana's resignation.
