U.S WARNS CITIZENS IN NIGERIA AFTER LIBYA ATTACK

U.S Ambassador to Nigeria, Terence McCulley

Following the attack on the U.S embassy in Libya that led to the death of the U.S Ambassador to Libya and three other Americans, the U.S embassy in Nigeria on Wednesday 12 September warned the Americans in the country about the threat of attacks by extremists and to consider their personal security and to keep personal safety in the forefront of their planning. The embassy warned them to use caution and discretion when deciding to attend large functions or visit establishments identified as potential targets, and respond appropriately if they detect suspicious activities.

The attack on the U.S. embassy in Benghazi came after a controversial movie about Prophet Mohammed was made by an Israeli-American, Sam Bacile, living in California, triggering a chain reaction of attacks against America in some other Muslim countries.

The  U.S Embassy in Nigeria fears terrorists in Nigeria may latch on the spreading rage against the movie to attack its citizens as security conditions in the country remained ”fluid and unpredictable.”

I wonder what our government is doing to stop the attacks from Boko Haram and change the image of our country for good.
