CHAD: Serikali ya Mpito imemteua aliyekuwa kiongozi wa upinzani, Succes Masra, kuwa Waziri Mkuu atakayehudumu katika kipindi cha utawala wa kiraia katika Taifa hilo ambalo limekuwa katika utawala wa Kijeshi tangu Aprili 2021.
Masra aliyerejea nchini humo Novemba 2023 baada ya kukimbilia uhamishoni, alikuwa akipinga utawala wa kijeshi uliotwaa Madaraka baada ya kifo cha Rais Idriss Deby Itno, aliyeongoza taifa hilo kwa takriban miaka 30.
Hata hivyo, inaelezwa kuwa Vyama vingine vya upinzani vimeonesha kutokubaliana na hatua ya uteuzi huo na kudai kitendo cha Masra kujiunga na Serikali ya mpito atakuwa amekubaliana na uvunjwaji haki ikiwemo mauaji ya Raia walioandamana kupinga Utawala wa Kijeshi.
Ikumbukwe, Chad ilikumbwa na machafuko baada ya Utawala wa Kijeshi kuongeza muda wa kukaa Madarakani kwa miaka 2 zaidi na kusababisha Wanajeshi kutumia silaha za Moto kutawanya Waandamanaji ambapo iliripotiwa zaidi Watu 300 waliopigwa Risasi.

Chad’s transitional government has appointed former opposition leader Succes Masra, who recently returned to the country following exile, as prime minister.
Masra will serve through the transition to civilian rule, Mahamat Ahmad Alhabo, Chad’s new secretary-general of the presidency, said on Monday.
Masra, president of The Transformers party, strongly opposed the military rulers who came to power in April 2021 after the death of Idriss Deby Itno, who led the country for 30 years.
In a referendum last month on a new constitution, where 86 percent of participants voted “yes”, Masra urged supporters to vote in favour of the constitution, which is now expected to pave the way towards an election.
He argued that its adoption would accelerate the end of the transition, while the rest of the opposition urged Chadians to vote ‘”no” or to boycott the referendum.
Masra fled Chad shortly after dozens of people were killed in October 2022 in a crackdown on protests against the military rulers, who had just extended by two years an 18-month transition supposed to culminate in elections and the return of power to a civilian government.
Authorities say about 50 people were killed that day, while opposition parties and non-governmental organisations say between 100 and 300 people were killed.
Almost all of the victims were shot dead by the military and police in the capital N’Djamena.
Masra returned from exile on November 3 after a reconciliation agreement was signed in the Democratic Republic of Congo capital, Kinshasa, on October 31, which guaranteed him the ability to participate in political activities.
However, several opposition parties have distanced themselves from Masra and spoke out about the general amnesty that the regime has granted for “all Chadians, civilians and military” involved in the events of the October 2022 protest.
