Chad has banned people from wearing the full-face veil, following two suicide bomb attacks on Monday.

Chad's government accused Nigerian militant Islamist group Boko Haram of the bombings which killed more than 20 people.

The prime minister said the veil was used as a "camouflage" by militants and said the security forces will burn all full-face veils sold in markets.

Chad is to host a new regional force set up to tackle Boko Haram.

The militant group has not commented on the attack but has previously threatened to attack Chad, after its forces started to help Nigeria.

At a meeting with religious leaders, Prime Minister Kalzeube Pahimi Deubet said the ban applied everywhere, not only public places.

He added that any clothing that covers everything but the eyes was a camouflage.

The attackers were on motorcycles when they blew themselves up outside two police buildings in the capital, N'Djamena.

Good one.This should be replicated in northern Nigeria, why would a human veil her face, is she a masqurade?

preizton:
Good one.

Yea, this should also be practice in northern Nigeria.

Hijabs were being used by prostitutes in old testament to conceal their identities. It is very unfortunate that those who copy everything seen or written to augment their religion practices but do not know the reasons behind those ideologies. Hihab does not signify women purity but it is just a clear booby trap.

Very soon we will and we shall make sure everyone is on bra and singlet and shorts.

Religious sentiment and bigotry won't allow such to happen here, even when they know that their own are being killed through that means.

Thank you Satan

Nothing is cast in stone,like some people would have us believe.

Life is dynamic. When ebola was almost becoming an epidemic, Catholic authorities ordered their priests to avoid certain practices to curb the spread of the disease.

They did and the heavens did not fall. I see no reason why some people would not accept that the world isn't waiting for them.

There is sense in common sense!

Ah i hope before this month ends baba and his government will ban it too in Nigeria.

Sometimes i want to believe that sharia is for the poor , because we never see children of our Muslim elites dress as such ,even when they are back home in the country .The kind of teachings this guys up North get seems to be another source of problem as it is riddled with violence while in the south west where teachings are relatively pro peace their religious heads like Alfas et al seems to have inculcated demonic IFA practices including preparation of all sorts of potions and charms for their 'customers'.
For example one well known alfa in my vicinity patronizes abattoirs for some cow internal organs to be used for God knows what. Another enjoins little children in helping him source for lizard dung/poo and birds only for this animals to be killed and their various parts used for diabolical purposes

This is how any reasonable government would react in making attempts to curb the menace of boko on their soil. Not like in Nigeria where the dura born keeps condemning attacks and says "I will" all the time. Weldone to the Chadians!

Unfortunately, some illiterates here are clamouring for it to be part of school uniforms.

If it were in Nigeria, you would have seen n heard different versions of Islamic rights .
That was how they started shouting online , that PMB shook hands with Iara Oshiomhole.

when the king of Saudi Arabia , shook hands with Michelle ,heavens did not fall.

Are they more Islamic than Saudi Arabians? we should do away with over zealous religious fanaticism n stop being stereotypes.

Op correct your topic. Hijab is not a face veil. Its a niccub thats a face veil which was banned.

I wouldn't call them illiterate, but rather those that are not ready to face the reality on ground, with the current security situation in the country, they should understand banning of hijab is a precautionary step to save lives...

Religion is important, but saving lnnocent lives should be a priority in this instance...

nothing is more disturbing than when someone speak ignorantly with so much certainty. Mary often pictured wearing a hijab or over garment.

Unfortunately many posters here cannot differentiate between Niqab and hijab nor even know what hijab is.
