Chadians start voting in presidential election

Description

Chadians begin to vote as polling stations open in N'Djamena to elect their president after three years of transition under military rule. Voters are to choose whether to extend decades of Deby family rule with the junta leader Mahamat Idriss Deby Itno or opt for his own prime minister, Succes Masra, denounced as a stooge by critics in the absence of any other serious challenger. The eight other candidates, either little known or considered not hostile to the regime, are not expected to win many votes. IMAGES
