IMUS CITY, Cavite – Caviteños are being reminded to stay home after dark as a provincewide curfew is now in effect ahead of the Barangay and Sangguniang Kabataan Elections (BSKE) on Oct. 30.

In a social media post on Friday, Imus Mayor Alex Advincula reminded residents that the curfew is in force between 10 p.m. to 4 a.m.

He appealed to Imus residents to stay home during the curfew hours unless they have a valid reason to leave.

Provincial Ordinance No. 420-2023, otherwise known as the “BSKE 2023 Curfew Ordinance,” imposes a daily six-hour curfew within the boundaries of the province from Oct. 19 to 30.

The edict mandates that all individuals, regardless of age, remain indoors, and not loiter or assemble in public during the hours covered by the curfew.

Exempted from the order are election officers and those performing official duties related to the elections, law enforcement officers, people traveling to or from work or in emergency situations, and individuals with parental permission for essential activities.

The Sangguniang Panlalawigan of Cavite approved the curfew ordinance during its 63rd regular session held in Trece Martires City on Monday. (PNA)
