Kano Governor Imposes 24-Hour Curfew Amid Violent Protests
The Kano State governor, Abba Kabir Yusuf, has declared a 24-hour curfew on the State following the escalation of the violence that marred the #EndBadGovernance protest.
The announcement, made in a press statement by the State Government House, followed reports of vandalism, assault, and looting of private and government properties across Kano metropolis.
“This action is meant to ensure the safety of lives and property,” Governor Yusuf emphasised.
The protest, which began peacefully, rapidly descended into disorder, prompting the state government to intervene. Governor Yusuf’s declaration mandated that all residents remained indoors for the duration of the curfew.
“All security agencies in the state are hereby directed to ensure full and immediate compliance,” Governor Yusuf declared, tasking law enforcement agents with the responsibility of enforcing the curfew and maintaining public order.
The governor also appealed to the public for vigilance and calm, urging citizens to cooperate with authorities during this critical period.
