Lagos further relaxes curfew, now 10pm to 6am

The Lagos State government on Friday announced that the curfew imposed on the people of the state as a result of the #EndSARS protests would now be observed between 10pm and 6am.

It was initially a 24-hour curfew declared last week Tuesday. Three days later, it was reduced to 8pm to 6am.

But on Friday evening, the state government, through its Twitter handle, @followlasg, said it decided to review the curfew further to 10pm to 6am.

In a series of tweets, it stated, “The Lagos State Government has announced further relaxation of the curfew imposed after the breakdown of law and order, following the hijack of the peaceful #EndSARS protests. The curfew will now be from 10pm till 6am.

“Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu praises Lagosians for observing the curfew, which is expected to restore normalcy in the communities.

“He urges all Lagosians to go about their business in peace, even as they shun ‘actions that can threaten our unity.

“The governor advises purveyors of fake news to stop causing disaffection among Lagosians, who are well known for being peace-loving and friendly.”
