Anambra State Government Restricts Traffic On Niger Bridge To 7pm Daily

Despite the relaxation of the hour of curfew by president Muhammadu Buhari from 8pm to 6am daily to 10pm to 4am, the Anambra State Government has announced that the Niger bridge will be shut at 7pm daily.

A public announcement by the Anambra State Government stated that the reason was because of the closure of the Asaba end of the bridge by the Delta State government for a state-imposed curfew.
