    The Model of National Destruction in Chad by the MPS

    By: Professor Djona Avocksouma - Chad

    First, national companies were bankrupted: the Farcha slaughterhouses, the Grands Moulins du Tchad, CotonTchad, Sonasut, the Lake Chad polder, the Moundou oil mill, the breweries... Objective achieved. Then, all natural resources were seized: black gold, livestock products, natron, gravel, cement. Objective achieved. Then, administrative revenues, such as taxes and customs, were privatized. Objective achieved. Finally, all fertile land, including state-owned land, was confiscated, often for a symbolic sum of one franc. Now, efforts are being made to expel farmers from their ancestral lands. The Marba of Western Tandjilé live in a visceral fear that is gnawing at them. This does not concern the famous national ombudsman. Baktchoro is not Miski.

    Defense and security services have also been privatized and instrumentalized in conflicts between herders and farmers. To definitively cement Chad's position as the world's lowest-income country, national education has been privatized: 70% of primary school teachers are community teachers, and 67% of secondary school teachers are paid by parents. The health sector is no exception to this logic: 45% of health centers are managed by untrained staff, paid by patients and their families, while qualified doctors remain unemployed. Scarce, quality resources are concentrated in N'Djamena, which is home to only 10% of the total population.

    The pinnacle of this decline is the Miski drug deal, comparable to the large-scale mafias of North and South America. It's hard to know where Chad stands in all this. Some have everything, while the majority have nothing.

    The dynastic power, which controls the executive, legislative, provincial, and municipal branches, has managed to govern the whole of Chad in record time. The facilitator is himself the national mediator, while also representing the executive in Miski. Where is the separation of powers in Chad? No avenues of appeal. To the people: their eyes to cry.

    Why not consider federalism?
