Nigeria

In March 2022, gunmen attacked a train travelling between Abuja and Kaduna, killing several passengers and abducting others. Avoid intercity transport by road and rail. Groups often target transport routes. You should reconsider your need to travel to Nigeria. The potential for terrorism, kidnapping, crime and civil unrest is high throughout Nigeria. We continue to advise do not travel to other parts of Nigeria due to the very high risk to your safety. If despite our advice you undertake travel within Nigeria, research routes and get professional security advice and support before departing.

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.
