The United States, United Kingdom, and Canada have issued security alerts to their citizens in Nigeria, warning them of potential violence during the planned nationwide protests.

In separate travel advisories, the three countries cautioned their citizens to avoid areas where confrontations between security agencies and protesters might occur.

The US Mission in Abuja urged Americans to avoid the rallies, advising them to steer clear of crowds and demonstrations and stay updated via local media.

Similarly, the UK High Commission also urged British nationals to exercise caution, avoid large crowds, and stay informed through media reports.

The Canadian government also cautioned its citizens to be vigilant, and adhere to local authorities’ instructions, and continuous monitoring of local media for updates.
