Adamawa State Government has Imposed a 24-hour curfew on all parts of the state, with effect from Sunday 3pm 25 October 2020
Fellow citizens we cannot allow hoodlums and misguided elements to operate unchallenged when we are already battling with the challenges of Insurgency, Kidnapping, Cattle Rustling, Banditry and Farmer/Herder clashes.
Furthermore, reports of people dying in the stampede have been received and we cannot afford to allow anyone to lose his or her life.
We must also avoid a scenario where the security, agents will be blamed if any person loses his/her life while being prevented from looting and destroying Government property.
In view of the above, I have declared and imposed an indefinite dawn to dusk curfew throughout the State beginning from 3 o’clock Sunday the 25th of October 2020.
Movement by all manner of vehicles except as authorized, is hereby prohibited as the curfew comes into effect.
As a responsible Government, we shall do everything within our powers to protect the lives of every citizen and will not brook any lawlessness within our boundaries.
I charge every citizen to remain calm as we navigate this current situation.
Long Live Adamawa State.
Long Live the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
