Update: Niger State Governor Sani-Bello imposes dusk to dawn curfew following killing of village head

The Niger Niger State governor, Abubakar Sani-Bello, has imposed dusk-to-dawn curfew on Lambata, Gurara Local Government Area of the state after a violent clash which led to murder of the village head, Alhaji Mohammed Abdulsafur.

It was learnt that some youths murdered the community leader on Saturday January 14, as a result of a long-standing chieftaincy tussle that led to the ascension of the deceased to stool.

In a statement released by secretary to the state government, Ahmed Matane, on Sunday, January 15, Governor Sani-Bello ordered that a curfew be imposed on the town from 6.00 p.m to 6.00 a.m, starting from Sunday, till further notice.

He stated that the imposition of the curfew was to assist the security agencies to maintain stability in the area, save lives and restore law and order.

The governor condemned in strong terms the violence and act of lawlessness that occurred in Lambata town.

He called on the residents of the area to cooperate with the security agents to restore peace in the town and urged security agencies to ensure the enforcement of the curfew.

Meanwhile, the Commissioner of Police, Niger State Command, CP Ogundele J. Ayodeji, has visited the District head of Lambata, Gurara LGA, and the family of the deceased.
