Chad repatriates over 600 Nigerian beggars
The Chadian Government has repatriated no fewer than 600 irregular migrants from Nigeria who were found engaging in begging activities in various parts of the country.
It was gathered that thousands of Nigerian refugees have fled Nigeria’s restive Borno state since 2019 at the peak of the Boko Haram insurgency to take refuge in neighboring countries of Chad and Cameroon.

Muhammed Barkindo, the director-General of the State Emergency Management Agency, SEMA, disclosed this to newsmen while profiling the refugees in Maiduguri on Monday.
Mr Barkindo said that the migrants were primarily from Borno, Kano, Sokoto and Kaduna states and had entered Chad without proper documentation.
Mr Barkindo said that many of them were reportedly living in precarious conditions and resorted to street begging as a means of survival.
According to him, SEMA had provided them with logistics support and basic necessities, including food and N10,000 as transport before their departure to their respective states.
He noted that many of the migrants expressed the desire to return home due to the hardships they faced.
