ZOOMING INTO CHAD

Time to go to our third segment where we zoom into a country on the African continent. Today we look into Chad. This week, re-elected President Idriss Deby died a day after he was declared winner of the elections. The army said the President had been commanding his army at the weekend as it battled rebels who had launched a major incursion into the north of the country on Election Day on April 11. Professor Douglas Yates from American Graduate School of African studies in Paris says Deby died a warrior.
