Taraba State Governor Agbu Kefas has imposed a 24-hour curfew on Karim town, the headquarters of Karim Lamido local government area and its environs effective July 2, 2023 to check the violence and killing in the area.
The curfew, according to newspointnigeria.com, was necessitated by renewed communal conflicts in some parts of the council area after the killing of over people.
In a statement, the chief press secretary to the governor, Yusuf Sanda, said security agencies had been mandated to ensure strict compliance and any person or group of persons found violating the order should be dealt with in accordance with the law.
“All ward heads, village heads, traditional rulers, and stakeholders in Karim Lamido LGA are advised to take note of the development,” he said.
