Governor Lalong had on August 15 declared a 24-hour curfew in the LGA

Residents of Jos North, Plateau State, on Wednesday defied the curfew placed on the local government area by Governor Simon Lalong and trooped out en masse to search for food. The 24-hour curfew followed the earlier dusk-to-dawn curfew imposed on three local government areas in the state due to security threats and tension witnessed by residents in some parts of the state.

“Our hope was dashed as Governor Lalong and his security team refused to relax the curfew because of the fear of the unknown,” a resident said. At Maza Junction, villagers were in a rush to get food items like pepper, tomatoes, rice, beans, roasted corn.Some students expressed displeasure with the situation and called on the Plateau State Government to provide a palliative for the people if it is not willing to relax the curfew.
