The governor of Anambra State, southeast Nigeria, Governor Willie Obiano, has lifted the curfew imposed on the state.

Naija News recalls that the Anambra Governor had imposed a 24-hour curfew on the state last week Friday following the threat of an attack on the state by hoodlums in the guise of #ENDSARS protesters.

In a broadcast to the people of the state, Governor Obiano had said that he was compelled by the prevailing situation in the country to take the decision but on Sunday, the governor relaxed the curfew from 6 pm to 6 am.

But in a memo on Tuesday evening, by the  Head of Service, Harry Udu, the Anambra governor said the curfew had been lifted, directing schools and civil/public servants in the state to commence work on Wednesday.
