Governor Ikpeazu Relaxes Curfew In Abia
Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State has relaxed the curfew imposed on some cities after hoodlums hijacked the peaceful #EndSARS protest in the state.
In a statement issued by the Commissioner for Information, John Kalu, on Saturday, the governor directed that the curfew in the state be relaxed between 8 am to 5 pm from Sunday.
While asking residents of the state to go about their normal businesses within the relaxation window, the governor warned that they should return back home during the new curfew time.
“We wish to inform members of the public that the planned relaxation of curfew in the state will now be from 8 am-5 pm starting from Sunday, 25th October 2020,” the statement partly read.
“Members of the public are free to move and go about their normal businesses within the relaxation window but ensure they are back home during the new curfew time of 5 pm to 8 am daily.”
The Commissioner, however, said that workers on essential duties including medical and paramedical personnel, journalists, men of fire service etc are exempted from the curfew.
