In a decisive move to enhance the security of of lives and maintain public order, Plateau State Governor Barrister Caleb Manasseh Mutfwang has imposed a 24-hour curfew on Jos/Bukuru metropolis effective from 12 midnight on Sunday, August 04, 2024.

Governor Mutfwang, in a consultation with the security agencies, took the decision after reviewing the actions of unscrupulous individuals who exploited the nationwide protest to unleash terror on innocent citizens.

The Governor in a statement by his Director of Press and Public Affairs, Gyang Bere on Sunday night noted that the criminal elements, armed with daggers, machetes and other dangerous weapons broke into shops and restaurants along Bauchi Road and Zololo Junction in Jos North Local Government Area, looting foodstuffs and other valuable items.

He emphasised 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 total enforcement of the curfew across the Jos/ Bukuru Metropolis.

He warned those planning to unleash further terror on innocent citizens to desist immediately or face the full wrath of the law.

The Governor also call on the relevant security agencies to remain vigilant and proactive in their duties to prevent any potential disruptions to the law and order.

Governor Mutfwang expressed gratitude to the citizens of Plateau State, particularly the Clergy and Imams for the unwavering support of the government’s policies and programs.

He acknowledged them for their cooperation and adherence to directives during the planned nationwide protest and praised their commitment to maintaining peace and unity.

“The peaceful conduct of our people before, during and after the nationwide protest is commendable. I urge everyone to continue to uphold this culture of peace as we work together to build a united and progressive Plateau”, Governor Mutfwang added.
