PRIME Minister Voreqe Bainimarama has this morning announced a nationwide curfew from 10pm to 5am.

He said this would take effect from Monday evening – March 30, 2020.

“There’s far too much risk of socialising and unnecessary travel at these hours,” he said.

“If you’re out during these hours, unless it’s for work or another life-sustaining purpose, the Police will direct you straight home.

“We’ll be announcing the full details of this curfew soon.”
