Curfew in Dagbon renewed

Accra, July 14, GNA - The Task Force Commander in the Dagbon Traditional Area on Monday announced the renewal of the curfew imposed on the area.

A statement issued in Accra on Monday and signed by Mr E. P. D. Barnes, Chief Director of the Ministry of the Interior, said the curfew hours would be from midnight to 0400 hours.

The statement said the curfew would be in place until it is suspended or revoked by the Task Force Commander.

The curfew was imposed in March last year following bloody clashes between the Abudu and Andani Gates in the Dagbon chieftaincy dispute in which at east 30 people, including the Ya Na were killed.
