Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has reviewed the 24-hr curfew imposed in Ilorin metropolis ,from 24 hours to between 6p.m. and 8 a.m. daily until further notice.
The review came after an emergency security council meeting with heads of the security agencies in the state.
A statement by Rafiu Ajakaiye,Chief Press Secretary to the Governor said a review of the situation in the ilorin metropolis suggested a relative calm.
He said the meeting also observed that the objective of the curfew has largely been achieved as the misguided elements who looted and vandalised public and private properties have been pushed back and normalcy restored.
“Consequently, the security council resolved to relax the curfew from 24 hours to between 6p.m. and 8 a.m. daily until further notice. This means members of the public can move around between 8 a.m. and 6p.m. daily within the metropolis.”
“Even so, the government will continue to review the situation and take decisions that are in the best interest of the state, the statement reads.
