Insecurity is 'Holding Back' Cross-Border Trade for Lake Chad Region, Chadian Expert Says
Security issues were at the heart of talks between Chadian President Mahamat Idriss Déby Itno and his Nigerian counterpart, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, international relations expert Hoinathy Rimingaye told Sputnik Africa.
“This visit reflects a renewed desire for strategic coordination in the face of the nebulous Boko Haram, whose actions continue to affect populations living around Lake Chad,” he said.
This threat is also slowing investment in a region with huge potential, the speaker added.
