The renewed curfew will be in effect from 10:00 PM to 4:00 AM, starting immediately. The government has called on local leaders, including Chiefs, Elders, and Youth, to exercise restraint and work toward peaceful solutions to the region’s issues.
The statement also outlined a total ban on carrying arms, ammunition, or offensive weapons within Saboba and its surrounding areas. Individuals found in possession of such items will be subject to arrest and prosecution, the government warned.
