Ebonyi State lifts a three-month curfew imposed on the Amasiri community in Afikpo Local Government following a deadly boundary dispute. The curfew, introduced in February 2026, was implemented after violent clashes between Amasiri and the Okporojo community in Edda Local Government. Multiple reports link the dispute to killings that include the beheading of four people during the February fighting. Following the assessment of security conditions, the state government, led by Governor Francis Nwifuru, orders the removal of the curfew in Amasiri. The state action applies to the community affected by the clashes and marks the end of the three-month restriction period that began in February. Both outlets frame the curfew as a temporary emergency measure aimed at restoring order after the boundary-related violence. The reports do not indicate any new incidents or additional measures at the time of the announcement, but confirm that the curfew has been lifted as scheduled after its three-month duration.
