Chadian opposition leader Succes Masra was appointed as Chad's prime minister of the transitional government by President Mahamat Idriss Deby Itno. Masra, who left Chad after violent demonstrations against the military regime in October 2022, returned from exile to lead the government. His appointment follows a period of political unrest and is aimed at establishing a new republic based on freedom, justice, and dignity. The government, led by Masra, will be tasked with addressing security, economic, and democratic reforms as the country moves towards general elections by November 2024.
