Trouble in Chad
Protests and demonstrations have continued to rock Chad following a military takeover after veteran ruler Idriss Deby Itno died fighting rebels.
Many have taken to the streets of the capital Ndjamena rejecting the installation of Mahamat Idriss Déby, the son of the late president, as the head of the transitional authority. The masses want the military to step down in favor of a civilian leadership.
