Bauchi curfew: Police ban social gathering

The Enugu State Police Command has urged residents to disregard the sit-at-home threat by those she described as pro-Biafra groups and other trouble-makers.

The state’s Commissioner of Police, Mr. Mohammed Danmallam, made the call on Wednesday during a meeting with members of the Enugu State Traditional Rulers’ Council led by Igwe Lawrence Agubuzu.

Danmallam disclosed that the command was already working in partnership with sister security agencies and other relevant stakeholders to ensure that the existing peace and security in the state was not compromised.

He advised the public to about their normal businesses and not yield to the threat and fear from some faceless individuals whose purpose is to instill fear and panic in law abiding citizens.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the meeting was called against the backdrop of the September 14 sit-at-home order in the South-East issued by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
