Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang, has declared a 24-hour curfew in the Mangu Local Government Area of Plateau State, North Central Nigeria.

The announcement, made through a press statement by the governor’s spokesperson, Gyang Bere, came into immediate effect and aims to prevent a breakdown of law and order within the troubled region.

The decision to impose the curfew followed consultations with relevant security agencies as the government seeks to quell rising insecurity in the area.

Residents, particularly those in Mangu, are urged to adhere to the sit-at-home order, with only individuals on essential duties permitted to move within the local government area until further notice.

Governor Mutfwang expressed concern over the persistent efforts of certain individuals to create an atmosphere of insecurity in the state, despite the government’s ongoing initiatives to curb terrorist activities.

He extended sympathy to the families of victims and the injured, assuring the public that the government remains steadfast in its commitment to establishing lasting peace.

The governor vowed to review the curfew as soon as the security situation improves in Mangu.

Plateau State has long grappled with internal conflicts, initially rooted in ethnicity and religion, and more recently, disputes between herders and farmers.
