Nigeria is scheduled to hold national and state elections between 25 February and 11 March. The risk of election related violence is high. You should avoid all political gatherings and election related sites in the lead up to, during and after this period. We've reviewed our travel advice for Nigeria and now advise 'reconsider your need to travel' to Abuja. We continue to advise 'reconsider your need to travel' to Nigeria overall. Higher levels apply.

We advise:

Reconsider your need to travel to Nigeria overall due to high threats of terrorist attack and kidnapping, the volatile security situation, possible violent civil unrest and high levels of violent crime.

Higher levels apply.

Political rallies, protests and violent demonstrations can occur with little notice throughout the country. International news events can sometimes trigger anti-Western demonstrations. There is the potential for increased tension on Fridays. Nationwide elections will take place in Nigeria in February 2023, and there is a heightened risk of protests during this period.

The Muslims usually starts there riot from the mosque, who knows the kind of sermons they give to them at the mosque

We all know who and who is capable of unleashing mayhem If this election doesn’t go the way they expect.

I just hope they don’t choke on the election results when Inec finally announces PO as our new president-elect.

I keep reiterating that As long as this election is free and fair with zero disruptions from Agbado boys then we won’t have reasons to announce a Rerun since the winner would have been glaring before dusk.
