The Kano State government has lifted the curfew imposed on the state following the violence and looting that trailed #EndBadGovernance protests that erupted earlier this month.

The decision was announced on Monday evening by the State’s Commissioner of Information, Baba Halilu Dantiye.

“Due to the relative peace that has been recorded in the state in the past few days, the governor has decided to withdraw the curfew completely,” Dantiye stated.

LEADERSHIP reports that the curfew was originally put in place on August 1 in response to widespread unrest during the #EndBadGovernance protest. The protest saw violent protests, vandalism, and looting in several parts of Kano city, prompting the State government to take strict measures to restore peace and order.

The curfew, which lasted for 12 days, had been partially relaxed twice to allow residents to carry out essential activities. The complete withdrawal of the curfew signified a return to normalcy in the state.

Dantiye also conveyed the governor’s appreciation to the people of Kano State for maintaining peace during recent mass prayer gatherings aimed at seeking an end to the economic hardship in the country. He urged the citizens to continue to cooperate with the government and security agencies to sustain the peace.

“The government is committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of all residents,” Dantiye added, calling for continued vigilance and collaboration between the public and security operatives.
