From 6am- 6pm: Adamawa Gov relaxes curfew over insecurity threats by hoodlums

Adamawa State officials have eased a 24-hour curfew imposed across the 21 Local Government Areas following the activities of hoodlums on Sunday that broke into Government warehouses carting away food and nonfood items.

The relaxation of the curfew follows a meeting in the early hours of Monday morning between security chiefs and Government officials led by the Deputy Governor, Prof Kaletapwa George Farauta.

Addressing the Press shortly after the meeting, the Deputy Governor announced that the curfew has been reviewed from 6pm to 6am and will be reviewed hourly while authorities will maintain an increased security presence to ensure compliance to Government’s directive and that criminals do not disrupt the peace of the State.

While urging Parents to send their children and wards to school as well as the reopening of businesses premises, she warned hoodlums and the public to abide by the curfew and remain courteous and cooperative if approached and questioned by security personnel.
Prof Farauta noted that Government will not fold its arms and allow miscreants disrupt the peace of the State.
