Dusk-till-dawn curfew has been imposed on the North-east Nigerian city of Maiduguri, following a foiled attempt on Wednesday night to invade the city by Boko Haram militants.
Col. Tukur Gusau, the spokesman for the 7 Division of the Nigerian Army announced the curfew in a statement today.
“In view of the recent development within Maiduguri metropolis, a 24-hour curfew is hereby imposed on the city.
“This is done to protect lives and property of innocent and law abiding people of Maiduguri,” the statement said.
It added that the Nigerian Army, once again, thanked the people for their continuous support and cooperation. “The situation is firmly under control,” it said.
