Chad’s Defence Minister, Daoud Brahim and general secretary of the Government, Haliki Choua Mahamat, applied for resignation on Wednesday after two sex tapes purporting to show the men went viral on social media.
A statement by the prime minister’s spokesman disclosed that Prime Minister Saleh Kebzabo accepted their resignations, however, no further details were shared.
The videos circulated on Sunday and Monday purportedly showed the men engaging in intimate acts with other people.
Reuters could not independently verify the material and immediately reach either man for comments.
Sex scandals are rare in Chad, a mostly Muslim country with conservative social morals.
