Governor Ahmadu Fintiri has taken the decision to enforce a curfew, in Adamawa State that will be in effect for 24 hours.
The governor made this announcement on Sunday citing the increasing incidents of criminals breaking into warehouses and stealing food items and other valuable goods.
In a post on his Twitter account Governor Fintiri explained that the government has implemented this measure as a step to curb the rising violence caused by hoodlums who are targeting both individuals and businesses.
In a report by The PUNCH in 2020 it was documented that angry residents looted a government owned warehouse in Kwana waya before breaking into the Central stores located at Barkin Kogi and stealing food items.
Governor Fintiri stated, "Effective on Sunday, July 30 2023 I, Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri have declared a 24 hour curfew in Adamawa State due to the escalating violence caused by hoodlums attacking people and businesses.
No movement is permitted except, for duties accompanied by identification. Your safety is our priority – please comply for the well being of all."
