Chad is preparing for a tense presidential election on Sunday ( https://www.olumorocktv.com/fifa-suspends-pakistan-chad-football-federations-due-to-outside-interference/), which has seen conspiracy to assassinate famous politicians and bomb polling stations, and the opposition has also called for a boycott.
The Chad Interior Ministry ( https://www.africanews.com/2021/04/10/chad-presidential-vote-mired-by-boycott-assassination-and-bomb-plots/) said Thursday that after discovering a conspiracy to assassinate prominent politicians, bomb polling stations and the headquarters of the Election Commission, the Chad Interior Ministry arrested several people, including…
…politicians.
The election is likely to hand the country's 30-year leader Idriss Deby a sixth term as 10 of his challengers were either barred or quit.
Protests have also been banned or violently dispersed and right groups have said authorities have cracked down on dissent.
