 Chad's presidential party has a new leader. Harun Kabadi was appointed Secretary-General of the patriotic Salvation Movement NPS at the end of a Congress under high tension in the capital city in Jammener. A well-known figure of Chadian politics, Kabadi, now President of the National Assembly, had already been the party's secretary-general some 12 years ago. A key political player during Idris Debi Itno's day in power, Harun Kabadi refused to step in after interim president when the Chadian leader died last April.
