Africa Live: Criticism as Nigerian state names airport after Tinubu - BBC News | Africa Live: Criticism as Nigerian state names airport after Tinubu - BBC News |
(32 minutes later) | |
Chadian junta-appointed Prime Minister Succès Masra has | |
announced he’ll run for presidency, a week after the leader of the junta, | |
interim president Mahamat Déby announced his own candidacy. | |
Mr Masra, a former opposition leader, signed a reconciliation | |
deal with Mr Déby after his return from exile, before he was appointed prime | |
minister in January. | |
He | |
told supporters at a rally on Sunday that he was seeking the top seat so as to unite | |
the people and "heal hearts". | |
The | |
opposition have criticised the move, saying it’s a ploy to give the appearance | |
of pluralism to an election which Mr Déby is certain to win. | |
It | |
is "a farce, a fake candidacy to accompany the head of military | |
power", Max Kemkoye, the spokesman of a group of opposition parties GCAP, | |
told the AFP news agency. | |
Mr | |
Déby's main rival, opposition leader Yaya Dillo, was killed in a shootout | |
with security forces on 28 February. The government had blamed him for a deadly attack on the country's security agency, which he denied. | |
He | |
was widely predicted to be the main opponent of Mr Déby in the election. | |
Mr Déby took over as Chad’s leader after his father was killed by rebels after | |
three decades in power. | |
