Escalating Conflict Sparks Curfew in Mangu, Plateau State

Plateau State Governor, Caleb Mutfwang, imposes a 24-hour curfew in Mangu Local Government Area due to heightened security concerns, following a clash between two individuals. The governor urges compliance and assistance from citizens to restore peace. Unrest results in the burning of houses, churches, and mosques, with casualties reported. Brig.-Gen. Gakji Shipi attributes the crisis to a personal altercation, not linked to political or farmer-herder issues. The governor promises a review of the curfew once the security situation improves, expressing sympathy for victims’ families.
