In response to the improved security situation in Mangu Local Government Area (LGA) of Plateau State, Governor Caleb Mutfwang has further relaxed the previously imposed curfew in the locality.
A statement issued by Mr. Gyang Bere, the Director of Press and Public Affairs to Governor Mutfwang on Monday in Jos, announced that the curfew would now be in effect from 8 pm to 7 am.
Governor Mutfwang explained that the adjustment in the curfew timing was made after careful consideration and consultation with the State Security Council.
The decision aims to enable residents to resume their agricultural and economic activities and contribute to the overall development of the state.
Mutfwang urged community leaders, regardless of their faith or ethnicity, to continue their strategic engagements aimed at fostering trust, tolerance, and better understanding among the people.
While encouraging residents of Mangu LGA to strictly adhere to the curfew by staying indoors between 8 pm and 7 am, the governor emphasized the importance of refraining from taking the law into their own hands.
He also called on security personnel to fulfill their constitutional responsibility of ensuring effective enforcement of the curfew to prevent any breach of law and order.
