UK media is the worst in the world

But I don't really blame them, when you have an incompetent, unrepentant terrorist piloting the affairs of a nation, it's best and believable to tell your country people to avoid that place.

Buhari have caused more harm than good to this country, let God save us through the judiciary because 4 years with this sick despotic bastard will be a disaster
All these for cheap nl likes . get small sense ,you that is not bastard what is your worth in life apart from writing insults and dragging front page on NL?

With the current spate of kidnapping, I would advise Nigerians in Nigeria to be careful when considering interstate travel within Nigeria.


Exactly

The warnings should not be only to foreigners, even we Nigerians too are wary of so many places because of the spate of killings and kidnappings that is going on.

I'm not too sure there is any really safe place in Nigeria apart from Aso Rock et'al. Not even some police stations is that safe.

The best solution now is the UN and other organisations should relocate at least 170million Nigerians out of the country
ASAP, then use the country as farm land.

so you want their media houses to tell their citizens to travel to zamfara for hunting or to visit kastina for sightseeing? If your your country don't value their citizens UK values theirs
Re: UK Warns Against Travel To 21 States by chronique(m): 5:04am On Jun 19, 2019
Never in the history of this country have we had a situation where a country lists 21 states that their citizens should not visit in Nigeria. Buhari has destroyed this country totally.

I never knew kidnapping was so rampant, infact I thought its only foreigners or only known figures/ rich people that get kidnapped till I heared the chilling experience of a lady kidnapped somewhere in the south south traveling interstate in a public bus one of these transport companies, their driver tried reversing when he saw they were not army men, they were shot at as they reversed, those that didnt get shot were taken into the bush and their family called for ransom.

doctokwus:

That is a bloody lie sycophants of his use as his defence when evidence of his unmitigated disaster as a president are made public by reputable insitutions or countries.
Even if he had good advisers,the man is bereft of ability to think out policies or decisions that would impact the country or people positively.
He is innately deficient in ideas, thoughts or processes,made worse by his innate bigotry and near extremist religious tendencies.
He is a modern day almajiri steeped and indoctrinated in Islam,but forced to attend modern institutions for which he was intellectually unfit for.
The result is his failures,so you lot should stop shifting the blame to a group of phantom good advisers you claim he doesn't have.
cheesy The way you passionately expressed your views. If only Buhari is on nairaland.

Fake, how you mention Akwa Ibom, when last was there a report of attacks in that State... This people should just go and sit down instead of steering unnecessary violence
I agree with you. Akwa-ibom is one of the most peaceful state in Nigeria.

So because I commented that no South West state was on the list, it means I am ridiculing other tribes?

I was only expressing my concerns for the state of affairs in my region and I did not intend to ridicule any regions

No South West state was on the list and that's a fact

You are the one overthinking things and over reacting to my comment





He's just a troll, no need replying.

The Foreign and Commonwealth Office of the United Kingdom has warned British nationals against travelling to about 21 states in Nigeria over security concerns.

The travel warning posted on its website and updated on Monday, stemmed from the worsening security situation occasioned by the Boko Haram terrorists attacks in the North East, armed banditry in the North-West and militancy in the South-South.



Specifically, the FCO advised against all travels to Borno; Yobe; Adamawa; Gombe; and the riverine areas of Delta, Rivers, Akwa Ibom and Cross River states.

The British government also cautioned against trips to within 20km of the border with Niger and Zamfara states.

The FCO further advised against all but essential travel to Bauchi, Zamfara, Kano, Jigawa, Katsina, Kogi and within 20km of the border with Niger in Sokoto and Kebbi states including the non-riverine areas of Delta, Bayelsa, Rivers and Abia States.

The advisory admonished British nationals to avoid crowds including political meetings, religious gatherings and places of worship, markets, shopping malls, hotels, bars, restaurants, transport hubs and camps for displaced persons.

“Attacks could be indiscriminate and could affect western interests as well as places visited by tourists. Besides Abuja, other major towns and cities remain particularly at risk, including Kano and Kaduna,” it stated.

The FCO noted that there was a high threat of kidnap throughout the country, adding that abductions could be motivated by criminality or terrorism, and could be carried out for financial or political gain.

It stated, “The security environment in the northeast has deteriorated since 2018 and there is a heightened risk of kidnap.

“There is also a high threat of criminal kidnap in the Niger Delta region and Kogi State. If you travel to areas to which the FCO advise against travel, you are particularly at risk and will need a high level of security.”

THIS IS WHY NIGERIA MUST NOT DELAY IN THE CREATION OF STATE POLICE FORCE.

We should forget about the abuses that governors whose control the state police force will be working under will unleash on the state police force and put the necessary machinery or legislation to get it working.
