APC Directs Members In Adamawa To Defy Curfew

The All Progressives Congress has directed its members and supporters in Adamawa State to defy the curfew imposed by the state police command, describing it as unlawful. In a statement issued in Lagos on Friday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said there was no threat to security in the state to warrant the imposition of curfew. It said the presidential and National Assembly elections were held without incident or declaration of curfew, wondering what warranted the unlawful curfew declaration. The APC said: “Imposing an unlawful curfew with effect from when voting ends on ‎Saturday is suspect and unacceptable. “We are therefore asking all our members and supporters to ignore the curfew, come out en masse to vote and also stay back to defend their votes.”
