BREAKING: Governor Announced 24-hour Curfew In Plateau LG

The Governor of Plateau State, Caleb Mutfwang, has announced a 24-hour curfew for the Mangu Local Government Area of the state, effective immediately.

The decision was made due to the worsening security conditions in the area, as confirmed in a statement by the governor’s Director of Press and Public Affairs, Gyang Bere, on Tuesday.

“Governor Mutfwang took the decision after consultations with the relevant security agencies.

“He stated that only persons on essential duties are allowed to move within the local government area until further notice.

“He urged all citizens, especially residents of Mangu Local Government Area, to comply with the directive and assist the security personnel by providing reliable information to restore peace and order in the area.

“He lamented that some people are still determined to create an atmosphere of insecurity in the state, despite the government’s efforts to end the activities of terrorist elements.

“He expressed his sympathy to the families of the victims and the injured and assured them that the government will not relent in ensuring lasting peace in the state.

“He promised that the curfew will be reviewed as soon as the security situation improves,” the statement reads in part.
