It still pays to watch your step in turbulent Chad.
With one of the most painful histories in Africa, Chad is a nation with its foundations built on the precipice of conflict. A harsh climate, geographic remoteness, poor resource endowment and lack of infrastructure have combined to create a weak economy suceptible to political turmoil.
A state of emergency has been declared in the capital N'Djamena and the eastern parts of the country.
The situation throughout the country is very unstable and expected to deteriorate. Any travel to Chad should be reconsidered.
