Tensions rise in Chad after burial of late President Idriss Deby

An uneasy calm pervades Chad’s capital N’Djamena since Friday’s funeral for President Idriss Deby, who ruled the central African country for more than 30 years.
Civilians say handing over power to Deby’s 37-year-old son to lead a transitional military council for 18 months is undemocratic.
Inoussa Labarang, 37, feeds his 27 chickens at his residence in Farcha, a neighborhood in Chad’s capital N’Djamena. Labarang says he expected to sell two chickens to raise money and buy millet to feed his family for at least three days.
Mangrove forests could be natures answer to climate change
But in Gabon, the rich mangrove forest north of Libreville has been ripped apart for development over the past few years.
The mangrove not only provide important habitat for a variety of wildlife and supply nutrients and sediments for seagrass-bed and coral-reef habitats, but they also pull massive amounts of greenhouse gases from the atmosphere, up to four times as much carbon as other tropical forests, according to a study.
Livlihoods at stake
But the trees also provide livelihoods for many in the region.
One family who sells crabmeat told Africanews: We do sustainable fishing and the destruction of the mangrove would be a shortfall because crabs are becoming increasingly scarce.
