The Adamawa government on Tuesday reduced official working hours in the state by one hour, to ease the difficulties civil servants face since it imposed a dusk-to-dawn curfew on Wednesday.
The 6p.m to 6a.m curfew was imposed to reinforce the current state of emergency in the state.
A statement by the secretary to the state government, Kobis Aris, and made available to newsmen on Tuesday said workers would now close at 3p.m.
“Sequel to declaration of state of emergency in the state by the president, commander-in-chief and the imposition of 6a.m to 6p.m curfew in the state, civil servants find it difficult to reach home before 6p.m.
“Consequently, Governor Murtala Nyako has approved that the state civil service official working hours be adjusted from 8:00a.m to 3:00p.m during the time of the curfew”, it said.
