Gov Fintiri declares 24-hour curfew in Adamawa State

The Governor of Adamawa State, Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri has declared a 24-hour curfew on the state, effective immediately Sunday July 30.
Governor Fintiri said the curfew followed the dangerous dimension the  activities of hoodlums had assumed across the state capital as they attack people with matches and break into business premises  and homes carting away property.

A statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Humwashi Wonosikou said there would be no movement throughout the state except those on essential duties and with valid identification would be permitted to move around during the period of the curfew.
The Governor appealed to citizens and residents of the state to comply with the directive, adding that any person found contravening the order will be arrested and made to face the wrath of the law.
