Governor Douye Diri of Bayelsa State has imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew on Bassambiri and Ogbolomabiri areas of the Nembe Local Government Area of the state.

Diri said the curfew, which takes effect from Wednesday, was in a bid to prevent the escalation of violent crisis.

This was contained in a statement by the Commissioner for Information, Orientation and Strategy, Mr. Ayibaina Duba.

There has been reports of violent crisis in the Nembe Local Government Area of the state.

However, Duba said the curfew will run from 6pm to 6am daily until the situation improves.

The statement read, “Bayelsa State Government has reviewed the reports of violent crisis in Nembe, leading to a breach of the public peace and the law by yet-to-be-identified individuals.

“Worried that the violence might escalate, a dusk to dawn curfew is hereby imposed on Nembe; Bassambiri, Ogbolomabiri and environs effective from Wednesday, July 14, 2021.

“The curfew shall be in force from 6pm to 6am daily until the security situation in the affected communities improves.”

Good move if truly enforced.
Nigeria will survive past 2023 then I don't see anything capable of breaking up. We are simply too intertwined. We should be talking of confederation not totally breaking up into seperate countries!

Times are tough but Naija will survive and thrive and eventually become super power!

FTC!
** I dedicate this FTC to the agitators and activists who put their necks on the line to keep the authorities in check.

Necessary. Before looting start

And that's a solution ehh?

If Nigeria survives till 2023 then I don't see anything breaking up Nigeria ever again.

Times have never been tough like this in this country. Inflation, Hunger, Kidnapping, Killings, Nepotism and no access to freedom of speech.

God Save Nigeria!!!

Same old ways....
Why are our leaders not proactively creative.

@Seniorwriter

We need visionary leaders, Sir.

Bassambiri and Ogbolomabiri, the two Akaibe brothers that love killling their self.
No year ever passby without them recording violent crashes between theirselves.
Two communities demarcated by bridge, don't know what they are always fighting for; very unfortunate.

A Quiet responsible and sensible Governor

There is crisis everywhere. Lord have mercy.

Crises everywhere. May God help Nigeria .

From North to South, senseless killings everyday.

Nigerians are 90% evil minded people.

Brothers killing brothers daily. The NORTH, SOUTH, EAST and WEST are divided against themselves. Let the government just declare anarchy so we start living officially as savages

Men! This crisis that started far back in the olden days and has continued up till this day! What did your ancestors tell you that you have refused to forget.

Hope it is not targeted to our hardworking brothers from the land of killing policemen
