  • The Kaduna State Security Council imposed a 24-hour curfew in response to ongoing protests, citing security concerns and criminal activities
  • Thousands of youths protested against the administration, claiming President Tinubu’s address failed to address their concerns about governance and hardship

The Kaduna State Security Council has enforced a 24-hour curfew in Kaduna and Zaria Metropolitan Cities.

Although normalcy has been restored in certain parts of Kaduna, thousands of youths are out on the streets, demanding an end to what they call a terrible administration.

President Bola Tinubu had addressed the nation, pleading for calm, but demonstrators claimed the country’s top citizen had not addressed their concerns.

In a statement issued on Monday, Samuel Aruwan, Overseeing Commissioner of the Ministry of Internal Security and Home Affairs, stated that the action was taken in the interests of peace.

“The Kaduna State Security Council, under the leadership of Governor Uba Sani, following a review of the security situation in the State, hereby notifies citizens of the following:”

“There is sufficient information to show that the ongoing demonstration has been hijacked by criminal groups who have looted shops and destroyed private and public property.

“In light of this regrettable occurrence, the Kaduna State Security Council has unanimously decided to immediately impose a 24-hour curfew on the Kaduna and Zaria metropolises and surrounding areas.

“Citizens are advised to stay home as security forces work to ensure safety and security. Monitoring will continue so that the curfew can be reviewed as needed.
