Chad’s military transition leader Mahamat Idriss Déby was officially sworn in Monday as President, ending the uncertainty for the country’s political future but creating more acrimony among opponents.
Mahamat, son of ex-President Idriss Deby who was killed on a battlefront last year in April appeared in a televised function dressed in white and raised his hand to take the oath of office in front of a room full of military and civilians in the capital N’Djamena.
