#EndBadGovernance Protests: Katsina government lifts curfew 

The Katsina government has lifted a curfew on the state following the #EndBadGovernance protest that was hijacked by rampaging miscreants.

This was announced in a statement by Abdullahi Aliyu-Yar’adua, a government spokesman, on Tuesday.

“Following reports on prevailing peace and harmony in all parts of the state, the acting governor, Malam Faruk Lawal-Jobe, has lifted the curfew imposed on the state with immediate effect,” said the statement.

Acting Governor Faruk Lawal-Jobe said the decision to lift the curfew enabled the residents to continue their normal businesses unhindered.

The Katsina government urged residents to report any suspicious movement of persons to the relevant authorities for prompt action.

He also reiterated the government’s commitment to curtail the state’s security challenges.

The acting governor commended the security agents and the people of the state for their support and understanding.

He, therefore, appealed for more support, cooperation and prayers for peace to reign in the state.

He said, “No meaningful development can be achieved in an atmosphere of insecurity.”
