Baba Ladé better known as the Lion of the Forest .
The former warlord accused of having massacred civilians in CAR, arrested by MINUSCA and then handed over to the Chadian authorities, tried and sentenced to 8 years in prison for war crimes and crimes against humanity, has decided to support the candidacy of
Idriss Deby Itno.
Ladé explains his position. I am here today for another vision. That of supporting the consensus candidate, Marshal Idriss Deby. And politics at the grassroots is consultation, I was consulted, solicited by the candidate Idriss Deby Itno in-person to support his candidacy and I found it better because it is necessary to dialogue with the one who likes dialogue. The base listens to me and it is because the base is also the person who is with us. That s what politics is all about.
