The Plateau State Government has imposed an immediate dusk-to-dawn curfew on Barkin Ladi, Bokkos and Mangu Local Government Areas following emerging security threats in the affected communities.
The curfew takes effect from Monday, September 21, 2026, and restricts movement between 6:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. daily until further notice.
In a statement signed by the Commissioner for Information and Communication, Joyce Lohya Ramnap, the state government said the measure is aimed at maintaining public order, protecting lives and giving security agencies the opportunity to stabilise the affected areas.
The government urged residents of the three local government areas to fully comply with the directive and plan their commercial, agricultural and personal activities around the restricted hours to avoid unnecessary hardship or confrontation.
It also directed security operatives to strictly enforce the curfew and announced an immediate ban on the use of motorcycles throughout the affected areas.
The government assured law-abiding residents that security personnel would carry out the enforcement professionally.
