Twin Bomb Blast: Kaduna government imposes 24-hr curfew

Kaduna State Government have imposed a 24-hour curfew within the metropolis following an explosion that occurred in two places.

This is contained in a statement issued by the governor's Deputy Director, Media and Publicity, Alhaji Ahmed Maiyaki, in Kaduna.

Gov. Mukhtar Yero described the attacks as the height of 'cowardice' by those bent on creating tension in the state, said the statement.

"Following the unfortunate situation, a twenty four (24) hours curfew has been imposed on Kaduna metropolis with immediate effect, to enable security agencies restore normalcy.

"Enemies of peace have visited us with their ungodly venom of wanton destruction of human lives

"This blast, coming in the Holy Month of Ramadan, is a clear indication that those behind the act have no iota of fear of God as they have none for the sanctity of human life,'' the statement read in part

The governor, therefore, assured residents of the state that government and security agencies would ensure the security of their lives and property.
