The Plateau State Government has imposed a 48-hour curfew in Jos North Local Government Area following a deadly security incident in Gari Ya Waye community, Angwan Rukuba, that left several people dead and others injured.

The curfew, announced in conjunction with security agencies, will take effect from 12 midnight on Sunday, March 29, 2026, and remain in force until April 1, 2026.

In a statement signed by the Commissioner for Information and Communication, Rt. Hon. Joyce Lohya Ramnap on Sunday, the government condemned the attack, describing it as barbaric and unprovoked.
