The Bauchi State Government has imposed a 24-hour curfew on the Katagum Local Government Area of the state due to the deteriorating security situation in Azare and its environments, leading to the destruction of public property, stealing, and victimisation.
The decision was made by the Executive Governor of Bauchi State, Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, to contain the situation in the area.
Kashim further noted that the governor had directed all security agencies to wade into the matter and ensure that the hoodlums were fished out and brought to book.
He also called on law-abiding citizens to cooperate with security agencies at this trying moment.
