Again Lagos reviews curfew, now 8pm to 6am

The Lagos State Government has again reviewed the curfew imposed on the people of the state to curb civil unrest.

The state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, announced on Sunday that the curfew would now be observed between 8pm and 6am.

A 24-hour curfew was initially declared by the governor last Tuesday following violent attacks and burning by hoodlums of police stations, private and public property across the state after the #EndSARS protests against police brutality were botched.

The curfew was later reviewed on Friday night to 6pm to 8am with effect from Saturday.

But Governor Sanwo-Olu said Sunday evening in a statement by his Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Gbenga Omotoso, that “the curfew in Lagos State has been reviewed. Restriction time is now 8pm to 6am.

“Lagosians are enjoined to plan their journey times as they go about their lawful business. Public schools remain shut till further notice.”
