N'DJAMENA (Reuters) - Chadians have voted in favour of a new constitution that critics say could help cement the power of junta leader Mahamat Idriss Deby. Voter turnout was about 64%, it said. Chad's military authorities have called the vote a vital stepping-stone to elections next year - a long-promised return to democratic rule after they seized power in 2021 when former president Idriss Deby was killed on the battlefield during a conflict with insurgents.
