The Coalition des Actions Citoyennes Wakit Tamma in Chad has expressed concerns over the country's persistent crises, four years after the Dialogue national inclusif et souverain. In a statement released on November 11, 2026, Wakit Tamma lamented the government's failure to fulfill promises of national refoundation. The coalition highlighted multiple crises, including health, security, diplomatic, and political issues.
Wakit Tamma cited the dengue epidemic as an example of the healthcare system's weaknesses. The coalition noted difficulties in disease prevention, diagnosis, and treatment, exacerbated by poverty and high healthcare costs. This situation raises questions about the government's responsibility to protect public health. The coalition emphasized that addressing structural issues in healthcare accessibility and quality is essential.
The coalition's concerns extend beyond healthcare to education and justice. Wakit Tamma argued that the shortcomings in the healthcare sector warrant a broader examination of public services. The group also revisited the resumption of clashes in Miski, despite a peace agreement signed in April 2025. This development highlights the limitations of a security approach focused on integrating combatants into the army and material concessions.
Wakit Tamma advocates for a dialogue based on justice, transparency in natural resource management, and equitable solutions. The coalition warned against a logic that legitimizes using force to gain advantages, risking further rebellions and erosion of state authority. The group also expressed concerns about Chad's diplomatic tensions with neighboring countries, including the Niger and Central African Republic.
The coalition questioned the risks of Chad becoming entangled in rivalries between foreign powers, given the reconfiguration of regional security alliances and N'Djamena's military rapprochement with Paris. Wakit Tamma urged the Chadian authorities to be transparent about their security commitments and prioritize preventive diplomacy.
On the political front, the coalition denounced restrictions on public freedoms and obstacles to opposition activities. Wakit Tamma specifically mentioned the cases of the Transformateurs and Groupe parties. The group called for an inclusive and sincere political dialogue to address these challenges.
The Wakit Tamma coalition's statement underscores the need for a corrective dialogue to address Chad's multifaceted crises. The group seeks a more transparent and equitable approach to governance, natural resource management, and public services.
