Governor Nyesom Wike has imposed a night time curfew at all exit and entry points of the state, few days after gunmen killed security personnel in some parts of Rivers state.
Gov Wike in a
state broadcast on Tuesday April 27 said no vehicle will be allowed to enter
into or travel out of Rivers State from 8pm to 6am every day, beginning from
tomorrow April 28 until further notice.
The Governor
who said that the killers of the three Customs officials, five soldiers, and an
unspecified number of police officers between Saturday and Sunday are people
from outside the state, said the curfew decision is aimed at curbing the
increasing rate of insecurity in the state.
Wike pleaded
for understanding from residents of the state as an investigation to arrest
those behind the act is being carried out.
