The Governments of Canada and the United States have warned their nationals of the risk of travelling to Nigeria, saying it continues to recommend that citizens avoid all but essential travel to the Niger Delta states and some states in the north.
The warning lists Akwa Ibom, Delta, Rivers, Bayelsa, Abia, Edo, Imo, Jos, Plateau, Bauchi and Borno States and the Gulf of Guinea as no-go- areas “because of the risks of kidnapping, robbery, and other armed attacks in these areas.
The travel warnings from both the US Department of State and Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs also listed the various terrorists attacks executed by members of the radical Islamic sect with ties to al Shabaab, the Islamic group operating in Somalia.
