Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Fufai, has imposed a 24-hour curfew in Atyap Chiefdom of Zangon Kataf Local Government and Chawai Chiefdom in Kauru Local Government.
Commissioner of Internal Security and Home Affairs, Samuel Aruwan, announced this in a statement on Thursday.
The statement said the curfew takes immediate effect.
“Security agencies are containing the tension arising from a clash last week over a farmland in Zangon-Kataf that community leaders tried to resolve but which seems to have escalated,” the commissioner said in the statement.
