The Yobe State Government has announced a further relaxation of the curfew in Potiskum, Gashua, and Nguru towns.
This decision was made following a security council meeting with heads of security agencies, presided over by Governor Mai Buni.
According to a press statement issued by Mamman Mohammed, the Director General on Press and Media Affairs to the Governor, the curfew will now be enforced from 6 pm to 6 am, starting Wednesday.
Mohammed stated that the meeting expressed concern over the emergence of hoodlums and criminals who exploited the nationwide protest to vandalize and loot government and private properties in the affected local government areas.
He urged parents and guardians to closely monitor their wards to prevent them from being used as agents of destruction and looting.
Governor Buni commended the security organizations for their mature and professional handling of the situation.
