Chad says to stop oil output if no World Bank deal

N'DJAMENA, Apr 14 (Reuters) Chad will stop its oil production from Tuesday unless it reaches an agreement with the World Bank to end a dispute over the use of oil revenues, a government minister said on Friday.

''We will turn off the tap in a week if there is no agreement with the World Bank,'' Human Rights Minister Abderamane Djasnabaille told a news conference after a cabinet meeting. He said production would be stopped on Tuesday, April 18 at midday.
