Kaduna State has been placed under a 24-hour curfew as the security situation in the state continues to deteriorate.
The Kaduna State Security Council, led by Governor Uba Sani, made the decision after reviewing the evidence of criminal elements hijacking ongoing protests and engaging in looting and destruction of property.
The curfew, which affects Kaduna and Zaria metropolitan cities and their environs, is effective immediately. Citizens have been advised to remain indoors while security forces work to maintain safety and security.
The decision to impose a curfew comes as a last resort to prevent further chaos and protect lives and property.
The Kaduna State Security Council will continue to monitor the situation and review the curfew as necessary.
The people of Kaduna are urged to cooperate with the security forces and stay safe during this challenging time. The government is committed to restoring peace and order in the state.
Samuel Aruwan, Overseeing Commissioner, Ministry of Internal Security and Home Affairs, announced the curfew on behalf of the Kaduna State Security Council on August 5, 2024.
