Nassour Guelendouksia Ouaido (born 1947) is a Chadian politician who was Prime Minister of Chad from 1997 to 1999 and was President of the National Assembly of Chad from 2002 to 2011. He was Secretary-General of the Economic Community of Central African States from 2012 to 2013. ==Career== A southerner,〔("Nouveau Premier ministre" ), ''African News Bulletin - Bulletin d'Information Africaine'', 22 May 1997.〕 he was born in 1947 at Gounou Gaya.〔("Un parlement jeune et démocratique" ), ''Diplomat Investissement: Journal de la diplomatie et des affaires'', March–April 2006 .〕 A demographer specialising in Sub-Saharan Africa, he started his studies in N'Djamena, where he obtained his ''baccalauréat'', and after that took a ''diplôme d'Ingénieur'' at Abidjan's School of Statistics. He later completed his education by receiving a diploma at Yaoundé and, lastly, at the Paris Demography Institute. Ouaido began his working career as co-director of the projected 1974-75 Chadian national census. He successively worked at the Permanent Interstate Committee for drought control in the Sahel, becoming in 1988 the interim director of one of its structures, the ''Centre d'Etudes et de Recherche sur la Population pour le Développement''.〔 Since 1995 Ouaido has been in politics under the banner of President Idriss Déby's party, the Patriotic Salvation Movement (MPS), serving as Minister of Education and Minister of Planning and Cooperation.〔 He was Secretary-General at the President's Office when, following the resignation of Koibla Djimasta's cabinet, he was appointed by the President on May 17, 1997 as the new Prime Minister.〔(May 1997 ), Rulers.org.〕 This change originated from the rallying to the government of the opposition leader Wadel Abdelkader Kamougué, who was thus elected President of the National Assembly with the support of the MPS on May 9. Ouaido's new cabinet included representatives of several parties, even if the key posts were kept by the MPS;〔〔(MAR | Data | Chronology for Southerners in Chad )〕〔''Africa South of the Sahara 2004'', page 223.〕 it was appointed on May 21.〔"May 1997 - Chad", ''Keesing's Record of World Events'', volume 43, May 1997, page 41,626.〕 Ouaido was eventually replaced two years later, on December 13, 1999, and succeeded by Nagoum Yamassoum,〔"Dec 1999 - Chad", ''Keesing's Record of World Events'', volume 45, December 1999, page 43,300.〕〔(December 1999 ), Rulers.org.〕 also of the ruling party and considered a close aide of Déby. It is believed that Ouaido's expected removal was motivated by two main reasons: the failure to quell the insurgency led by the former Minister of Interior Youssouf Togoïmi and the difficulties with the Doba oilfield project, abandoned by the oil companies Elf Aquitaine and Royal Dutch Shell.〔("New PM for Chad" ), BBC News, December 14, 1999.〕 Another element was the fall of cotton prices, which affected the country's first source of exports and thus increased the deficit.〔Cherif Ouazani, ("Déby dans la tourmente" ), ''Jeune Afrique'', December 21, 1999 .〕 In the April 2002 parliamentary election, Ouaido was elected to the National Assembly as an MPS candidate from Gounou Gaya constituency in Kabia Department.〔(List of members of the National Assembly ) (following 2002 election), ialtchad.com .〕 When the new National Assembly first met on June 10, 2002, he was elected as the President of the National Assembly.〔"Jun 2002 - Chad", ''Keesing's Record of World Events'', volume 48, June 2002, page 44,829.〕〔(Page on 2002 parliamentary election ), IPU-PARLINE.〕 On February 29, 2008,〔("Decret N°325/PR/2008" ), website of the Chadian presidency, February 29, 2008 .〕 Ouaido was appointed by Déby to head an international commission of inquiry into the disappearances of opposition leaders who were allegedly arrested by the government earlier in the month.〔〔("Wife of missing Chadian opposition leader snubs meeting with Pres. Deby" ), African Press Agency, February 28, 2008.〕 However, there were concerns from the opposition and non-governmental organizations that this commission would not act independently, and it was subsequently replaced by another commission, which was viewed more favorably〔("Tchad: la commission d'enquête sur les opposants disparus lance enfin ses travaux" ), AFP, May 9, 2008 .〕 and was not headed by Ouaido, on April 2.〔("Decret N°526/PR/2008" ), website of the Chadian presidency, April 2, 2008 .〕 Ouaido was subsequently designated as Secretary-General of the Economic Community of Central African States, taking office on 28 February 2012.〔Placide Ndinga, ("CEEAC: Nassour Guelengdouksia Ouaidou prend les commandes" ), ''Journal du Gabon'', 29 February 2012 .〕 He was succeeded in that post by Ahmad Allam-Mi on 5 August 2013.〔("Tchad: Allam-Mi Ahmad aux commandes de la CEEAC" ), Xinhua, 7 August 2013 .〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nassour Guelendouksia Ouaido」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
