The United States embassy in Abuja and its consulate in Lagos have shutdown indefinitely.

The embassy in Nigeria said in a Facebook post that the development was caused by the government shutdown in the US.


The statement read, “Due to the current US government shutdown, the American centres located in the embassy, Abuja and Consulate- General, Lagos are unfortunately closed. They will re-open once the US government shutdown is resolved. Sorry for any inconvenience to our valued patrons.”


This implies that persons who have applied for tourist, study, business visas, immigrant visas or any other travel document will have to cancel their plans.

President Muhammadu Buhari has welcomed
Nigerians into the year 2019. Buhari stated that
the year 2019 will be significant for the country.



Dear compatriots,


It is my utmost pleasure to rejoice with all
Nigerians as we enter the year 2019, which will
be a very significant one for our country.

2. At the turn of every year, we often use the
opportunity to look back at the past and forward
to the future. To review the outgoing year, its
high and low points, successes and failures, and
be fully thankful to God.

3. We Nigerians are a religious people, and we
believe that God reigns and rules in the affairs of
men. A time like this offers precious opportunity
for thanksgiving, stock taking and reflection on
goals and targets set for the receding year, and
how much was accomplished. The ones not done
can then be rolled over into a new year.

4. The dawn of a New Year is also a time to
look forward. To consider new prospects, unfold
our plans, and prepare for landmark dates and
events.

5. 2019 will be an election year for us. In about
two months, the polls are due, and we will elect
leaders into various offices, at national and state
levels.

6. As I welcome you into 2019, I also reiterate
my many promises and declarations that the
general elections will be free, fair and credible.

7. Elections need not be do or die affair, and we
should not approach that eventuality in a
democracy with trepidation and mortal fear.
Happily, a large number of presidential candidates
have committed to peace, and peace we shall
have.

8. Those who continue to trumpet falsehood and
negativity are on their own, fighting a losing
battle. The greater number of Nigerians are
trusting and believing that we shall deliver on our
promises for a level playing field at the polls, and
that is what we shall do.

9. Nigerians desire peace, security, prosperity,
inclusiveness and infrastructural development, a
nation they can be proud of, a country that can
hold its own among the nations.

10. That is the journey we have embarked on
since we came onboard in 2015, and we are not
distracted as we move on. We are resolved to
build a country in which the resources are utilized
for the benefit of the largest number, and not
appropriated by a privileged few in their never
ending quest to satisfy their greed. We are on
this mission together, and I assure you of a firm
commitment to the ideals of a safe, secure, fair,
just and prosperous country.

11. We have had our challenges: security,
economic, political, social. But we are resolved to
combat and overcome them all.

12. I appreciate your support and collaboration in
previous years, and look forward to same in 2019,
and beyond, as I hope you will renew the
mandate you overwhelmingly gave us in 2015, for
another term.

13. We are motivated by nothing other than
service to motherland, and service without
selfishness or personal interest.

14. I can assure you all that we are making
steady and sustainable progress in all areas of
national life. Those who are unbiased can see
and appreciate the progress the country has made
since 2015.

14. A New Year provides opportunity for renewal
of commitment, and I invite you to rededicate
yourselves to the vision of a Nigeria that works
for all.

15. We are moving from potentials to
actualization, and it's a task to be accomplished
by us all; man, woman, young, old, military,
civilian, all Nigerians.

Please come along, as we journey to the land of
our dreams. Happy 2019.


17. Thank you and God Bless the Federal Republic
of Nigeria.

Lai Mohammed, minister of information, has asked Senate President Bukola Saraki to stop dancing on the graves of victims of the Offa robbery incident.

Mohammed said this while reacting to a comment credited to Saraki’s aide.

The minister had asked Saraki, who said he donated a sum of N10 million to the victims, not to play politics with the incident.

Thereafter, Yusuph Olaniyonu, media aide to the senate, said Mohammed known to be an “unrestrained and compulsive perjurer” only commented on the incident to score cheap political points.

But the minster said the claim by the senate president that he donated the sum for the care of the robbery victims is false.

“Instead of stopping at that, which in itself constitutes an acceptance of wrong-doing, Dr. Saraki went ahead to hurl insults at me, even when I have been largely restrained in issuing my earlier warning,” Mohammed said.

“Had I not been restrained, I would have gone ahead to divulge what actually transpired. For example, the claim by Dr. Saraki that he donated 10 million Naira to care for the
victims of the Offa robbery is patently false.

“He did not! The 10 million he referred to was donated when the Offa market got burnt, and it was made in Ilorin, not Offa. When Dr Saraki visited Offa to commiserate with the community in the aftermath of the robbery, he did not donate a dime! I challenge him to prove me wrong.

“But with politics in the air, the truth becomes the first casualty. Realising that he goofed, Dr. Bukola apparently caused the radio interview in question to be edited to remove the donation reference, and then re-aired. Is it not
an irony that the people who engaged in this egregious act of dishonesty are the same ones calling others names?

“The people of Kwara, who are bone-tired of the long years of ‘bolekaja’ governance in the state, are all saying in one voice, ‘O to ge’ (enough is enough), and will soon have
the opportunity to express their frustration with their votes.”

In April, not less than 20 persons were killed
after armed robbers invaded Offa and raided
banks.
