In Chad, civil society organisations have staged an original protest - asking people to whistle early this morning and again later tonight as a veiled method of showing their anger at the country's poor governance.

"This civil action proposes that people whistle for 15 minutes at 05:30 local time (06:30 GMT) and again in the evening at 21:30 (22:30 GMT)," said a statement from one of the groups, which lists a series of complaints against the President Idriss Deby, who has announced he is planning to run for a fifth term in elections scheduled for April.
"Express your anger from the comfort of your own home, without risking violence being done to you... Blow out, suffocate this dying system which is already choking you", it adds.
It's not clear how many people have taken part so far, but not everyone is convinced.
One Chadian commenting on Facebook said he hadn't heard anything this morning, with another describing the entire protest as a "hullabaloo".
