Gov. Mutfwang Of Plateau Lifts Curfew In Jos

In a welcome move, Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang has announced the lifting of the curfew previously imposed on Jos, the state capital.

This decision comes after a thorough review with security agencies and an assessment of the improved security situation in the area.
