“(Laughter). The rest of the funds will go to the organizing committee, which has incurred quite a bit of debt to organize this cultural event. We have approached sponsors who have so far not responded favorably, probably due to the economic crisis affecting the country. This is also the reason for the postponement of the concert to July 9, originally scheduled for June 3.”

“I was born in 1979 when my country was already at war… It’s 2008 now, and Chad is still at war. I was actually in N’Djamena during a fierce battle in February of this year and I can tell you that war is completely and utterly terrible. I saw it firsthand with my own eyes. It’s only when we get peace in my homeland that we’ll be able to start building for the future.”

“I started singing at a very early age, I never gave up despite all the obstacles I encountered. By the time I reached my teens, I knew I wanted to get out there and perform live, so I started taking drama lessons to overcome my natural shyness. After that, I went on to sing. I used playback at first. But then gradually as I gained more confidence I began to use my real voice. The turning-point came in 2000 when I wrote my first song in English and started performing concerts.”

“I am a mother and also a local goodwill ambassador for the FAO. When I was at the National School of Administration and Magistracy (Enam), the theme of my dissertation was "the rights of the Chadian child." This love for children has been close to my heart for a long time. Thus, to make this dream come true, on June 16, 2003, on the occasion of Children's Day, I gave my first concert at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and African Integration to pay tribute to Chadian children. So, I have a sort of "vocation" to help deprived children in general. We all have a responsibility towards children. We must help those who are on the streets to reintegrate into society. Because the child is the father of the man. This is why the theme of my concert is "For a Chad worthy of its children." This project is approved by UNICEF and is non-profit. He's more of a humanitarian. And I'll continue to do it because it's a commitment of mine. A portion of the funds raised at the concert will be donated to UNICEF to support children in difficult situations.”

“As I told you, my vacation is not intended to rest, but to carry out a number of projects that are close to my heart. These include, among others, the production of my next album, some of the lyrics of which have already been written. Moreover, during this concert, a song from my 3rd album entitled "Samha" meaning "beautiful woman" will be performed on the occasion. I take this opportunity to inform you that all my songs will be sung to pay tribute first to Chadian women and children. My second short-term project is the creation of my foundation called "FOMOM", Mounira Mitchala Foundation. This foundation will be created to help vulnerable groups, specifically Chadian women and children.”
