The Kwara State Government last night relaxed the two days curfew declared in the state as fallout of the attacks by miscreants last Friday.
The government in statement issued last night said the review was the outcome of a security council meeting held security operatives in the state.
According to the statement, โKwara State Governor Abdulrahman AbdulRazaq on Sunday held a security council meeting with heads of the security agencies in the state hence the needs to relax the curfew.’
“A review of the situation in the Ilorin metropolis suggested a relative calm. The meeting 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”.
