 US Embassy warns citizens ahead of #FreeNnamdiKanuNow protest in Abuja


The United States Embassy in Abuja has issued a security alert to Americans in anticipation of a planned protest scheduled for Monday in the Federal Capital Territory.

The protest, organised under the banner #FreeNnamdiKanuNow, is expected to draw crowds to Eagle Square and the Central Business District.

The planned protest was announced by activist and former presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, Omoyele Sowore, on his X (formerly Twitter) account on October 9.

Sowore stated that the protest would take place on October 20 and be directed toward the Aso Rock Presidential Villa, describing it as a “historic” and peaceful demonstration aimed at securing the release of the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu.

The activist wrote, “We now have a date for the historic #FreeNnamdiKanuNow protest march to the Aso Rock Villa in Abuja. It is October 20 at 7 am.”

Kanu, who is currently facing terrorism charges at the Federal High Court in Abuja, has been in custody since June 2021 following his controversial extradition from Kenya.

In a statement published on its website on Friday, the Embassy cautioned that the protest could lead to disruptions and potential violence.

It advised US citizens to steer clear of the protest areas and limit their movement across the city.

“The US Embassy in Abuja informs US citizens that the Free Nnamdi Kanu Now protest has called for peaceful demonstrations on Monday, October 20th, 2025, in Abuja.

“There may be roadblocks, traffic congestion, and confrontations between police and protestors that could turn violent around Eagle Square and the Central Business District.

“The Embassy advises all U.S. citizens to avoid this area and to severely limit all movement throughout the city on Monday, October 20th,” the statement read in part.

With safety in mind, the Embassy recommended that children stay home from school and that domestic staff who commute from outside Abuja not report to work on that day.

“The Embassy recommends children in Abuja stay home from school and domestic staff who travel from outside of Abuja to stay home as well,” it added.

Americans in Nigeria are being urged to take heightened security precautions.

“Avoid areas where protests are taking place. Avoid crowds. Exercise caution if unexpectedly in the vicinity of large gatherings or protests,” the advisory continued.

The Embassy also reminded US citizens to monitor local news, keep a low profile, and be alert in public places such as shopping centres, movie theatres, and places of worship.

“Review your personal security plans and keep your cell phone charged in case of emergency,” the message advised.
