Insecurity: Zamfara Govt Declares Curfew Over Incessant Terrorists Attack

The Zamfara State Government has implemented a new curfew along the state’s borders with Katsina and Sokoto.

The Commissioner for Information and Culture, Mannir Haidara, made this announcement in a statement following the State Security Council meeting.

He noted that curfew is starting from 7:00 pm to 6:00 am.

The commissioner emphasized that this measure was implemented to address the ongoing issue of frequent kidnappings of travellers on the Sokoto-Gusau-Funtua highway.

In order to ensure the effectiveness of this directive, all motorists and travellers are required to adhere to the government’s order.

The government also noted that security agencies have been instructed to closely monitor the two borders and ensure strict compliance with the directive
