A dusk-to-dawn curfew has been imposed in Jangebe town, Zamfara State by the government due to a violent protest.
The protest occurred after the return of the girls abducted last week in a secondary school in the town. The girls regained freedom on Tuesday morning.
The state’s commissioner for information, Sulaiman Anka, said the state government imposed the curfew to prevent further breach of peace.
His words: “Similarly, there is strong discovered evidence of market activities in the town that aid and abet bandits’ activities in the town and neighbouring communities.
“Consequently, all market activities in the town are hereby suspended until further notice,” the official said.
“The state government is poised to ensure safety of lives and properties of its citizens at all cost.
“With this announcement, the Zamfara State Police Command is hereby enjoined to ensure total enforcement” .
