The Bauchi State Police Command has suspended the curfew imposed on Yelwan Tsakani, Lushi and Anguwan Kusu communities of the state.
This is a result of a review of the improvement of the security situation in the area within the last couple of days.
This was contained in a press release signed by the PPRO Ahmed Mohammed Wakil and made available to newsmen.
It would be recalled that a 24hrs curfew was imposed on the communities following a conflict that started between two youths in the area and later escalated to some areas, resulting in the killing of three persons and leaving scores of houses burnt. After a review of the initially imposed curfew, the command further relaxed the curfew to 12hrs.
CP Umar Mamman Sanda visited the warring communities on an inspection visit where he assessed the security
the situation of the communities sympathize and comfort with the natives, and directed a thorough investigation into the matter to bring the perpetrators to book.
The CP appeals to community and religious leaders, youth leaders in the area and the general public to maintain a close watch over the behaviours of youths as well as happenings in the area and report any suspicious activities noticed to the nearest police station to forestall the future reoccurrence of such incident.
To this end, the Command urged citizens not to panic and go about their normal business, that there is no cause for alarm.
