Ekiti State Governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi, has imposed a 24-hour curfew on the state effective from 10pm on October 20, 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fayemi said the curfew followed the state governrment\u2019s observation \u201cwith growing concern how the ENDSARS protest, which started as a peaceful protest against police brutality by youths in Ekiti State, has been hijacked by some hoodlums.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said, \u201cThe hoodlums have capitalised on the ENDSARS protest to rape, assault, rob and extort innocent citizens across the State. These are in addition to the wanton destruction of properties, particularly private properties.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The governor, in a statement by the Secretary to the State Government, Mr Biodun Oyebanji, on Tuesday titled, \u2018Fayemi imposes 24-hour curfew on Ekiti, said, \u201cGovernment is concerned that if this state of affairs is allowed to continue unabated, it will lead to a breakdown of law and order thereby threatening the wellbeing of the people of Ekiti State.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIn the past 48 hours there have been incidents of gang-rape, robberies, physical assaults on innocent people, looting and burning of a police station. These acts of brigandage are not in consonance with the legitimate aspirations of the protesters. It cannot be logical to seek to remedy impunity with impunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cGovernment, therefore, cannot afford to watch a deliberate enthronement of anarchy by some bad elements who have hijacked the protest for some clandestine reasons. Consequently, the Governor of Ekiti State, Dr Fayemi, hereby imposes a 24-hour curfew on all parts of the State starting from 10 pm tonight, Tuesday, October, 20, 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOnly essential workers and service providers with valid means of identifications are allowed to move around during the period of the curfew. Any person found on the street that does not belong to this category, would be promptly arrested and prosecuted according to the laws of Ekiti State,\u201d Fayemi explained.<\/p>\n","post_title":"EndSARS: Ekiti imposes 24-hour curfew","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"endsars-ekiti-imposes-24-hour-curfew","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-10-20 17:01:54","post_modified_gmt":"2020-10-20 17:01:54","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/newsspecng.com\/?p=759","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":755,"post_author":"13","post_date":"2020-10-20 15:32:32","post_date_gmt":"2020-10-20 15:32:32","post_content":"\n

Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has condemned Tuesday night attack on #EndSARS protesters at the Lekki tollgate area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The governor said forces beyond the state\u2019s control were responsible for the gruesome act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He made this known when he visited the wounded protesters at some Lagos hospitals on Wednesday morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sanwo-Olu vowed to work with the Federal Government to get to the roots of the matter, adding that he will address Lagosians this morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said, \u201cThis is the toughest night of our lives as forces beyond our direct control have moved to make dark notes in our history, but we will face it and come out stronger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019ve just concluded visits to hospitals with victims of this unfortunate shooting incident at Lekki.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt has taken me this long to make a statement because I have to prioritize the welfare of the victims of this very sad incident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThere are currently 10 patients at the Gen Hospital, 11 at Reddington and 4 at Vedic; with mild to moderate levels of injuries while 2 are receiving intensive medical care. 3 patients have been discharged & we will continue to monitor and ensure all patients get the best care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs the Governor of our state, I recognize the buck stops at my table and I will work with the FG to get to the root of this unfortunate incident and stabilise all security operations to protect the lives of our residents. I will give a state broadcast in the morning.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tragedy struck when security operatives, in a bid to disperse #EndSARS protesters, reportedly opened fire on the teeming youths at the Lekki tollgate around 7pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Similar demonstrations have been staged in different parts of the state and the country.<\/p>\n","post_title":"Sanwo-Olu to address Lagosians today","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"sanwo-olu-to-address-lagosians-today","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-10-21 09:23:51","post_modified_gmt":"2020-10-21 09:23:51","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/newsspecng.com\/?p=782","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":770,"post_author":"11","post_date":"2020-10-20 19:37:21","post_date_gmt":"2020-10-20 19:37:21","post_content":"\n

The Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, has ordered the immediate nationwide deployment of anti-riot police unit \u2013 the Police Mobile Force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The deployment is to protect lives and property of Nigerians amid the ongoing violence that has marred the #EndSARS protests rocking the country and as well as secure critical national infrastructure across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The IGP disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday titled, \u2018Attacks On Police Facilities, Others \u2013 IGP Orders Deployment Of Anti-Riot Police Officers\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The statement signed by Force Public Relations Officer, DCP Frank Mba, partly read, \u201cThe IGP has also ordered massive deployment of Police operatives to strengthen security around Correctional facilities nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe orders are coming on the heels of increasing attacks including acts of arson and malicious damage to public and private facilities as recorded in some states of the Federation including the Federal Capital Territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cConsequently, the Commissioners of Police in the thirty-six (36) States of the Federation and the FCT are to identify and isolate law-breakers from peaceful protesters; immediately arrest and diligently prosecute such perpetrators of violence in their respective Commands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Inspector-General of Police calls on members of the public to avail the police with useful information that can lead to the re-arrest of the fleeing inmates, unlawfully released from Correctional facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He advised parents and guardians \u201cto prevail on their children and wards to steer-clear of acts of violence and criminality as the Force will henceforth exercise the full powers of the law to prevent any further attempt on lives and property of citizens.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The #EndSARS protests rocking the country have continued for almost two weeks with youths calling for a lasting reform of the Nigeria Police Force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All entreaties by politicians and business leaders for the youths to leave the streets failed as they block major highways, thereby, causing gridlock and affecting economic activities.<\/p>\n","post_title":"EndSARS: IGP orders immediate deployment of anti-riot police officers nationwide","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","post_password":"","post_name":"endsars-igp-orders-immediate-deployment-of-anti-riot-police-officers-nationwide","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-10-20 17:30:45","post_modified_gmt":"2020-10-20 17:30:45","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/newsspecng.com\/?p=762","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"next":false,"prev":true,"total_page":577},"paged":1,"column_class":"jeg_col_2o3","class":"epic_block_3"};
