<h4>Nigerian Governor Declares Curfew</h4>
<p><strong><a href="https://openlife.ng/">OpenLife Nigeria</a></strong> has reliably gathered that governor Ahmadu Fintiri has imposed a 24-hour curfew on Adamawa State.<br />
This is after the vandalisation of the government property by hoodlums who broke into warehouses to cart away COVID-19 palliatives.</p>
<p>Fintiri, in his statewide broadcast, said the government took the action as a precaution, following the activities of “some misguided elements” who have broken into warehouses looting COVID-19 palliatives.</p>
<p>Earlier on Sunday, there were reports about the looting of a government-owned warehouse at Kwana-waya by angry residents, who later broke into the Central stores located at Barkin Kogi and looted food items.</p>
<p>The governor said, “Reports of people dying in the stampede have been received and we cannot afford to allow anyone to lose his or her life.<br />
“We must also avoid a scenario where the security agents will be blamed if any person loses his/her life while being prevented from looting and destroying Government property.</p>
<p><a href="https://tribuneonlineng.com/">Adamawa is one of the states in the North-East geopolitical zone of Nigeria. It is bordered by Borno to the northwest, Gombe to the west, and Taraba to the southwest, while its eastern border forms part of the national border with Cameroon.</a><br />
The State takes its name from the historic emirate of Adamawa, with the emirate&#8217;s old capital of Yola, serving as the capital city of Adamawa state.</p>
<p>It is one of the most heterogeneous in Nigeria, with over 100 indigenous ethnic groups.<br />
The State was formed in 1991, when the former Gongola state was divided into Adamawa and Taraba states.</p>
<p>Since it was carved out of the old Gongola State in 1991 by the General Ibrahim Badamsi Babangida military regime, Adamawa State has had 10 men, both military and civilian, controlling the levers of power, who played crucial roles in transforming the state into what it is today.</p>
<p>Of the 36 states in Nigeria, Adamawa state is the eighth largest in area, but the thirteenth least populous with an estimated population of about 4.25 million as of 2016.</p>
<p>Geographically, the state is mainly composed of the highlands of mountains (the Atlantika, Mandara, and the Shebshi ranges) and the Adamawa Plateau, crossed by valleys and rivers, most notably the Benue and Gongola rivers.</p>
