The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office which disclosed this on the UK government website cited Monday’s terrorist attack on the Abuja-Kaduna train.

It also cited last Saturday’s invasion of the Kaduna airport by bandits during which one person was killed.

Kaduna government on Tuesday said eight persons had been confirmed dead and 26 injured in the attack, while an unspecified number of persons were kidnapped.

The FCDO identified the states to avoid in Northern Nigeria as Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Gombe, Kaduna, Katsina, and Zamfara, saying they are prone to violence and abductions.

The statement reads, “The FCDO advises against all travel to Borno State, Yobe State, Adamawa State, Gombe State, Kaduna State, Katsina State, and Zamfara State. Violent attacks are frequent and there is a high threat of kidnap. On 26 March 2022, gunmen launched an attack against Kaduna airport, killing at least one airport official in the latest in a series of attacks by gunmen in the north of Nigeria.

“On the evening of 29 March 2022, an apparent Improvised Explosive Device attack took place against a train travelling from Abuja to Kaduna. Reports suggest that a number of people were killed and that others were abducted by gunmen. Train services are now suspended between Abuja and Kaduna.”

They created this hellhole called Nigeria. As for Lugard... I have nothing to say.

Rugaria:
Why are they advising their citizens to avoid the North? I thought they always helped the north to win elections in Nigeria and to get into power right from independence days? You will be sponsoring folks with wierd beliefs and lifestyles to lead a country of over 200 million people, just to get idiots in power so they can turn the blind eye while your multinationals loot the resources from other parts of the country bare.. Evil neocolonialists..

Bigheart042:
More evils are coming in the north.
Leave nnamdi kalu alone.

Its easy to lie to the world that Igbos are terrorists but its not easy to hide the real terrorists (northerners) to the world I have always said that the truth is a flame that can't stay hidden for long.

God bless the lovers of truth!

They are disoriented. Adamawa & Gombe are more peaceful than any state in the SE today. Where is NIGER State? Where is Kebbi & sokoto? Nigerian denial is affecting the US in Nigeria
