Cabinet reshuffle.

Chadian President Idriss Deby on Sunday dropped all ministers from the Union nationale pour le developpement et le renouveau (UNDR) from his coalition government, AFP reported. The move followed a decision by the UNDR to endorse the second most influential member of the cabinet, Agricultural Minister Saleh Kebzabo, as its candidate for presidential polls on 20 May. Other prominent personalities in the race include National Assembly Speaker Wadal Abdelkader Kamougué and former prime minister Kassiré Coumakoye.
