Osun state governor,Senator Ademola Adeleke has imposed a 24-hour curfew on Igbajo, Boluwaduro Local Government Area of the state, following an unrest and breakdown of law and order in the area.
Osun state commissioner for Information and public enlightenment Kolapo Alimi disclosed this on Monday in a statement made available to newsmen in Osogbo. The governor ordered an immediate lockdown of the town until normalcy is fully restored.
The state government said the unrest, which broke out on Sunday night and continued into the early hours of Monday, was linked to tensions arising from the death of Prince Adegboyega Famodun, who passed away last week after a brief illness.
Governor Adeleke who condemned the unrest , noted that his government would not tolerate any uncivil behaviour capable of truncating the existing peace and harmony being currently experienced throughout the state.
He warned that anyone caught fomenting trouble would be made to face the full wrath of the law.
The governor directed the Army, Police, Department of State Services and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps with other security agencies to commence 24-hour surveillance over the community.
