Adamawa Gov eases curfew in Mubi, sets new movement hours
Adamawa State Governor, Umaru Fintiri, has relaxed the curfew earlier imposed on Mubi Local Government Area as part of measures to restore normal activities and help businesses in the area.
The new arrangement takes effect immediately, with restrictions on vehicular movement now beginning at 9:00 p.m. and ending at 6:00 a.m. daily.
The restriction covers vehicles, including tricycles and electric bicycles, while residents moving on foot will be allowed to stay outside until 10:00 p.m.
The change followed a review of the security situation in Mubi, one of Adamawa State’s major commercial centres.
Fintiri praised Mubi residents for obeying the earlier curfew, saying their cooperation helped security agencies restore peace in the area.
He said Mubi’s importance to trade, agriculture and cross-border commerce made it necessary to create an environment where businesses could operate without fear.
“Government is committed to protecting lives and property while also ensuring that economic activities are not unduly disrupted. I urge all residents to continue to cooperate with security agencies and to be vigilant. Let us keep the peace in Mubi for the overall interest of our people and the prosperity of our businesses,” Fintiri said.
The governor also warned criminals and other troublemakers against actions that could threaten the peace recently restored in the town.
“Anyone found engaging in criminal activities will be dealt with in accordance with the law. Government will not fold its arms and allow a few individuals to jeopardise the peace we have worked hard to restore,” he added.
He said his administration would continue working with traditional rulers, community leaders, youth and women’s groups to strengthen security and keep Mubi safe for residents and businesses.
