Comoros President Azali Assoumani Grants Son Sweeping Powers | Firstpost Africa

Comoros President Azali Assoumani has granted new powers to his son, which critics say, makes him the de-facto president. President Assoumani's 40-year-old son Nour El Fath Azali was appointed secretary-general of the government in July. Now, he has been granted new powers that require all decrees issued by ministers and governors to be approved by him before they are officially published and enacted. The latest move by the president has raised concerns over him allegedly trying to consolidate his family's grip over the island nation. Watch the report for more details.
