N'DJAMENA, May 6, 2024 (BSS/AFP) - Chadians began voting for a president on Monday in an election ostensibly aimed at ending military rule but dismissed by opponents of junta leader Mahamat Idriss Deby as a farce.

Voters trickled into a polling station in Ndjambal Ngato near the presidency, AFP reporters saw, adding there were just a few voters gathered elsewhere in the capital N'Djamena.
