Chads Defence Minister Daoud Brahim and governments general secretary Haliki Choua Mahamat
Chads defence minister and the governments general secretary resigned on Wednesday, an administration spokesman said, after two separate sex tapes purporting to show the men were shared widely on social media.
Prime Minister Saleh Kebzabo accepted the resignations of defence minister Daoud Yaya Brahim and the governments general secretary Haliki Choua Mahamat, Kebzabos spokesman said in a statement, without giving further details.
The videos, which were circulated on Sunday and Monday, purportedly showed the men engaging in intimate acts with other people. Reuters could not independently verify the material and was not immediately able to reach either man for comment.
Sex scandals are rare in Chad, a mostly Muslim country with conservative social mores. (Reuters: Text, Excluding Headline)
