Read it:
Chad from Hissène Habré's political police to the oil state of Idriss Déby and his son. A World Bank law meant to keep oil money for the poor lasted six years. A Calgary start-up admitted wiring two million dollars to a Washington company owned by an ambassador's wife. A general went to prison over pills bound for Libya; a minister was convicted over food aid that never arrived. And in August 2026 the auditors who asked for the oil company's invoices were, by their authority's account, hooded and driven away. Covers Idriss Déby and Mahamat Idriss Déby, the oil company SHT and its buyer Glencore, Mahamoud Adam Bechir and Griffiths Energy, Idriss Youssouf Boy and Aboud Hachim Bouder, CFE and Abderahman Moussa, and Hissène Habré and the DDS.
