As a result of mounting insecurity, the United States Embassy in Abuja is scaling down its public operations.
The reduction in operations will last one week effective from yesterday, Friday, July 16, 2021.
“The U.S. Embassy in Abuja will be reducing public operations effective Friday, July 16 through Friday, July 23 as a security precaution,” the embassy said in a statement.
It added: “July 20 and July 21 are local holidays and the Embassy is scheduled to be closed to the public on those days. The Embassy plans to resume full public operations on Monday, July 26.
“Services affected include routine American citizen services, visas, and the Education Advising Center.
“U.S. Citizens who experience an emergency may contact the duty officer through the Embassy switchboard on +234 (9) 461-4000, then press zero.”
