US EMBASSY ISSUES ADVISORY TO AMERICAN CITIZENS IN ABUJA.

The US Embassy in Nigeria has issued a security alert, advising American citizens to avoid non-essential travel to military and government facilities in Abuja due to increased global security concerns. 

The advisory, which prohibits all embassy personnel and their families from visiting these sites unless for official purposes, urged American citizens to remain vigilant in public places, especially in locations frequented by Westerners and government officials, and to also avoid large gatherings, maintain unpredictable routines, and familiarize themselves with emergency exits in buildings.

Despite the new restrictions, the Embassy said that its Consular Sections in Abuja and the Consulate General in Lagos remain open and operational, therefore, citizens seeking further information or assistance can visit the official website.
