Kaduna State Government, yesterday, lifted the 12-hour curfew imposed on Sabon Garin Nasarawa-Tirkaniya in Chikun Local Council, following the return of law and order in the troubled communities.

The Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, disclosed this in a statement to journalists.

He said: “The military and police will continue to carry out patrols in the locations, as residents of the area may now go about their lawful activities.

“The government also advises citizens to steer clear of activities capable of disrupting public peace, as those involved will be promptly dealt with in accordance with the law,” he said.

As a result of the rival gangs clashes in the Tirkaniya community, which led to the death of two persons, and many others sustaining injuries.

Consequently, the state government imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew on the community to restore law and order.
