It's just another day in the Chadian capital, N'Djamena as locals come to terms with the demise of their late president.
President Idriss Deby reportedly succumbed to injuries on the frontline with rebels on Monday.
"In other words it's a coup d'etat organised by people against the population - it's not against the president but against the population. I think it's something that should not be done and I am asking for the support of the international community - to help this country return to a good position", said N'Djamena resident, Bienvenu Mbairanai.
For entrepreneur Djegolbe Mbaibekorom, recent developments are unfortunate.
"It's not how it should work. The President of the Assembly is there so he is the one who should take things in hand - yet we give it again to people in the military. It follows the logic of Idriss Deby, so of course I'm against it", he said.
