Kalzeube Deubet (pictured), prime minister of Chad, on Friday said the country would soon commence rounding up of foreigners as a result of the recent Boko Haram attack that led to the death of 37 persons in N’Djamena, capital of the country.
He did not give details on whom the raids would target and where.
Deubet said those detained would be placed at centres in Baga Sola on the shores of Lake Chad.
He said the north-central African country wanted to get rid of “terrorists once and for all.”

The prime minister said Chadian government had earlier announced other security measures, such as bans on the burqa – an article of clothing that covers the entire body – and also public gatherings.
