The Yobe government has placed a 12-hour restriction order on movement of vehicles across the state during the Eid prayer, for security reasons.

A statement issued by Alhaji Abdullahi Bego, Director General, Press Affairs to Yobe governor, announced this on Monday.

He said, “Gov. Ibrahim Gaidam has approved the placement of a 12-hour restriction of vehicular movement across the state as part of preparations for a peaceful and hitch-free Eid-el Kabir prayers on Tuesday, 21st August.

“The restriction begins from 10.00p.m tonight (Monday), to 10.00a.m tomorrow (Tuesday).

“The public is kindly advised that no vehicle will be allowed within or near Eid praying grounds except those on special duties,” he said.

He noted that the restriction order followed the outcome of security meeting between the governor and security chiefs in the state.

Bego urged the members of the public to cooperate with security agencies throughout the sallah period and beyond.

So you think the security is meant for Muslims only?

How e take concern me

Security reasons, I see. Its a pity even the law could persecute itself in Nigeria

Proactive measures, very good.

Eh! But MURIC was crying the traditionalists were restricting movement bcus of their festival the other time na.

Well, for security reason and only for vehicular movement.....If the intention is pure and for d good of d citizens, all good.

There is no peace for the world murderer of peace.Peace is as expensive as freedom and is also as cheaper as air that is if you can choosed to maintain your lane.

Cows and herdsmen movements nko?

Katsina State, May the celebration of this year Eid-el Kabir bring more Joy, happiness and peace to our various. And may we also experience peace all over Nigeria. Eid-el mubarak.

because of security people should not go about their business freely

Muric will not say something because it's not traditionalists

America is believed to be a fore runner in terms of the most powerful nation. Every country that believe in orthodox spirit or philosophy are looking up to the U. S of A.

Security is one of the top most secret that America can never joke with.


There's a common saying among the FBI "we can break the law to protect the nation"


If the governor of that state breaks the law to protects its subject, there is no cause for alarm.

One of the constraints facing the fundamental human rights are curfew, house arrest, custom and tradition, and the one that the governor in that state did. But the governor is justified "for security reasons and safety".

But who or what are they scared of? I thought Boko Karam has been defeated and are incapable or carrying out coordinated attacks

akinszz:

Which make sense, give up your freedom (not to move ooo, but not to move with vehicle) for just 12 hours and everybody is safe or don't make such rule and you hear that Boko Haram used car bomb in Eid ground killing hundreds?

If you are the leader, which will you chose?

What? Even taliban don't do such a such a stupid thing. The animals in humans skin are taking the country backward day in day out. It is a downward spiral.

He said no movement of vehicles... They didn't say people should not move and perhaps, did you know how long this people have been suffering from insecurity.


The government is talking about security and it has nothing to do with the violation of human rights.


Muric is talking about the violation of human rights that was abused by the Afrelist. The Afrelist violated "freedom of movement "

Abi ooo, so also Oga Jonah first told us they didn't kidnap the chibok students

This is not about religion, this is about security and safety of Nigerians! This is not about restrictions of movement, you can go anywhere you like, unlike in Osun. You can't just go with vehicle. This is also put in place by the governor who has the power to do so, not by some priests. This is very different with the traditionalist in Osun. It is even Muslims that are affected by this as they have to walk to Eid ground no matter how far away from their home it is

If Boko Haram Strike and kill hundreds, you will blame Government for not being proactive

bla bla bla bla sentiments.... what are the security forces are meant for? Do u think of those that will have to work and earn per day before they can put food on their table . Don't they have right to do so...

akinszz:

Who said you shouldn't go about your business?
Or do you comprehension problem? You can go ANYWHERE you like, you can't just go with vehicle

Please think.

The ban on vehicle is from 10 pm on Monday to 10 AM on Tuesday. How does that stop anybody from earning his daily bread?
This is to make work of security officials easier. They work. For example, there is no Sallah for them, they have to be on duty

does that make it right...

Nothing wrong about that. The state, like the rest in the north east, is security volatile in the contemporary time.
Do you want a situation where down to dusk curfew is imposed across the state after those criminals might have unleashed terror on the people? Or are you not concerned?

Not everything should be looked from the religious point of view.

I wander,this proactive action should be hailed.restricting car movement for 12hrs is better than loosing thousand lifes to boko haram again
