Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang has declared a 24-hour curfew in Jos and Bukuru metropolis, effective from midnight on Sunday, August 4, 2024.

According to a statement signed by the governor’s Director of Press and Public Affairs, Gyang Bere, the curfew was imposed after reviewing the actions of unscrupulous individuals who exploited the nationwide protest to unleash terror on innocent citizens.

The governor noted that these criminal elements, armed with dangerous weapons, broke into shops and restaurants along Bauchi Road and Zololo Junction, looting foodstuffs and other valuable items.

Governor Mutfwang emphasized that the curfew is in the best interest of all citizens and urged everyone to comply fully to ensure the safety and well-being of all residents. He directed security agencies in the state to ensure the total enforcement of the curfew across the Jos/Bukuru Metropolis.
