The Zamfara State government has declared a dusk-to-dawn curfew in Jangebe town in Talata Mafara Local Government Area.
The Commissioner for Information in Zamfara, Mr. Sulaiman Anka, announced this in a statement on Thursday.
He noted that the government’s decision was in reaction to the unfortunate civil disobedience that took place in the town following the release of the abducted school children.
The commissioner explained that the curfew, which came into effect on Wednesday, was imposed to prevent any further breach of peace.
“Similarly, there is strong discovered evidence of market activities in the town that aid and abet bandits’ activities in the town and neighbouring communities.
