Nigerian officials on Tuesday declared an official curfew in parts of north-central Nigeria following further attacks.
Plateau State governor Caleb Mutfwang ordered the 24-hour lockdown in the Mangu local government district in hopes of trying to control the deteriorating security situation, his spokesman said in a statement.
Only persons on essential duties are allowed to move within the local government area until further notice.
Officials gave no further details on the recent escalation of violence.
