Katsina Government Lifts Curfew After #EndBadGovernance Protest
The Katsina State government has announced the lifting of the curfew that was previously imposed in response to the #EndBadGovernance protests, which had been marred by vandalism and destruction of public property.
This decision was communicated by Mr. Abdullahi Aliyu-Yar’adua, the Director of Press in the Office of the Secretary to the State Government, in a statement released on Tuesday in Katsina.
According to the statement, the acting governor, Malam Faruk Lawal-Jobe, has decided to remove the curfew effective immediately due to the current state of peace and order observed throughout the region.
This measure is intended to allow residents to resume their daily activities and conduct their business without any restrictions or hindrance.
The government has urged all citizens to remain vigilant and report any unusual or suspicious activities to the appropriate authorities to ensure timely intervention. This call for vigilance underscores the administration’s commitment to addressing and mitigating security issues within the state.
In his statement, the acting governor extended his gratitude to the security personnel and the residents for their cooperation and support during the curfew period. He emphasized the importance of continued support, cooperation, and prayers from the public to foster a stable and secure environment.
The acting governor highlighted that meaningful progress and development can only occur in an atmosphere of safety and stability, reinforcing the need for ongoing community involvement in maintaining peace.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
