The Plateau State Government has further relaxed the 24-hour curfew earlier imposed on Jos-Bukuru metropolis following violent protests in the area.<\/p>\n
Gyang Bere, the Director of Press and Public Affairs to Gov. Caleb Mutfwang, disclosed this in a statement on Saturday in Jos.<\/p>\n
Bere said Gov. Caleb Mutfwang, who ordered further relaxation of the curfew, said there would now be free movement between 9 am and 7 pm, effective Sunday.<\/p>\n
The News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, reported that the government on Sunday imposed a curfew following the looting of public and private assets by some hoodlums in Jos North Local Government Area of the state.<\/p>\n
The miscreants hijacked the nationwide #EndBadGovernance protest to perpetrate the criminal acts.<\/p>\n
Bere said that the decision followed an advisory by security agencies on the now calm situation in the area.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn light of the improved security situation in the Jos-Bukuru metropolis, the Plateau Government has further relaxed the curfew, effective Sunday, Aug. 11.<\/p>\n
\u201cResidents are now permitted to move freely for their lawful activities between 9 am and 7 pm daily until further notice.<\/p>\n
\u201cGov. Caleb Mutfwang, in consultation with security agencies, has authorised this relaxation.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe adjustment is to allow law-abiding citizens to continue with their economic activities while maintaining public order,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Bere said that the governor, who thanked all the security agencies for effectively enforcing the curfew, said that the government would continue to review it as the security situation improved.<\/p>\n
He added that the governor also urged residents within the Jos-Bukuru metropolis to cooperate with security personnel and report any suspicious activity for prompt action.<\/p>\n
