#EndSars: Oyetola imposes 24-hour curfew on Osun
The Osun State Governor, Adegboyega Oyetola
The Osun State Government has imposed a 24-hour curfew on all parts of the state, effective from 11:59 pm on Tuesday, October 20, until further notice.
The state government in a statement signed by Secretary to the State Government, Wole Oyebamiji and made available to DAILY POST on Tuesday evening, noted that with a high sense of responsibility the unfortunate dangerous dimension the End SARS protests have assumed across the country, particularly in the South-West States.
He recalled Saturday’s attack on the governor, saying Oyetola would not have been alive to preside over Tuesday’s security meeting.
He said, “In spite of the Saturday incident, we have allowed the protest to continue in the hope that the real protesters would take charge of the protest.
“Events of the last 48 hours have, however, shown clearly that the protests have been hijacked by criminals and hoodlums.
“As a responsible and responsive government that took the sacred oath to protect the lives and property of our citizens, we will not sit and watch criminals unleash terror on our State.
