BORDER

Zamfara State Government on Tuesday ordered immediate restriction of movement along the state’s borders with Katsina and Sokoto from 7:00 pm to 6:00 am.

Grassroots Parrot learnt that the move is to tackle the incessant kidnapping of travellers along the Sokoto-Gusau-Funtua highway.

The state Commissioner for Information and Culture, Alhaji Mannir Haidara, disclosed this to newsmen in Gusau on Tuesday.

Haidara explained that the directive was part of the measures being adopted by the state government to curve banditry in the state.

The commissioner, therefore, advised motorists and travellers to abide by the order, as according to him the decision was for their own safety.

He stated that other measures put in place were not for public consumption, assuring that Zamfara state government would continue to take measures in order to curve the menace.

The statement read in parts “As from today, the state government has ordered restriction of movement along Katsina/Zamfara and Sokoto/Zamfara borders.

“This include Yankara in Faskari local government, Katsina state border of Zamfara with Katsina state and Bimasa Zamfara border with Sokoto state from 7:00 pm to 6:00 am daily.
