U.S. Mission to Nigeria
Security Message for U.S. Citizens
U.S.G. Personnel Restrictions
June 28, 2012

The U.S. Mission in Nigeria is issuing this emergency message informing U.S. citizens of the current restrictions on U.S. government personnel in Abuja. 
 
Beginning Friday, June 29 through July 1, all U.S. government personnel in Abuja are restricted from going to places of worship and [b] all commercial establishments [/b]adjacent to any place of worship.  In addition, all U.S. government personnelare required to return to their residences by 12:00 midnight.  These restrictions will be re-reviewed on Monday, July 2.
 
These measures are being taken as a safety precaution because of recent extremist attacks on five churches in the states of Bauchi, Jos, and Kaduna, and the attacks in Borno, Yobe, Kano and other areas resulting in scores of deaths.  An explosion occurred outside a nightclub in Abuja on June 22.  Media continually report extremist threats to attack throughout June.
 
The situation in the country remains fluid and unpredictable. The U.S. Mission in Nigeria strongly urges U.S. citizens in Nigeria to consider their personal security and to keep personal safety in the forefront of their planning.
