JUST IN: Ondo Govt Reviews Curfew On Ikare

May 9, 2021

The Ondo State Government has reviewed the  twenty-four hour curfew imposed on Ikare, Akoko North East Local Government Area of the State.

Consequently, Governor Oluwarotimi Odunayo Akeredolu, SAN has directed that beginning from Monday, May 10, 2021, the curfew be effective from 7.00pm to 7.00am. The curfew was ordered on the heels of the violence in the town when it seemingly assumed a disturbing dimension.

Government had monitored developments in the town since the imposition of the curfew just as security agencies diligently and professionally, enforced the order to restore peace in the community. The review of the curfew order is, therefore, the outcome of the assessment of the situation, so far. 

It must, however, be noted that any further breach of the peace shall attract more stringent measures from Government in the direction of peace enforcement. Government shall be most decisive than ever.  

All residents of the town are enjoined to abide by this fresh directice and take maximum advantage of this window to deepen harmony and brotherliness amongst one another. 

Furthermore, all traditional rulers, opinion leaders as well as men and women of goodwill are advised to rein in their wards, loyalists and supporters to embrace peace henceforth.

Signed 

Donald Ojogo 
Commissioner for Information and Orientation, 
Ondo State
