 U.S warns citizens in Nigeria of possible 'terrorist threat' The ​embassy has been on heightened alert ⁠since the U.S. and Israel ​launched coordinated strikes against Iran. U.S. ​citizens should take additional precautions when traveling to the embassy in the capital ​Abuja and the U.S. consulate ​in commercial capital Lagos and U.S.-affiliated schools, ‌the ⁠embassy said, Reuters reported. The embassy did not give details on the security threat, but Nigerian authorities have in ​recent days ​stepped up ⁠security in Abuja following threats of pro-Iranian protests. In ​northern Nigeria, where there ​is ⁠a sizeable Shi'ite Muslim minority influenced by Iran, thousands of protesters ⁠have ​taken to the streets ​to march in support of Iran.

‘I GET EXCITED WHEN WE MAKE LAW THAT ANGERS OPPOSITION’ – AKPABIO. (PHOTO).


 President of the Nigerian Senate, Senator Godswill Akpabio says when the opposition expresses anger over any law made in the Senate, he gets excited.


Akpabio spoke on Saturday in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom State capital, while addressing the audience in reception of the First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu.


According to him, anger from the opposition signals to him that the right law has been made.


He declared that opposition figures threatening to boycott the 2027 presidential election are just not ready for the contest.


He said, “Each time we make a law and the opposition frowns, I get excited that I’ve made the right law”.


“Yesterday I saw one man shouting on TV because of the Amended Electoral Act, saying we’re likely to boycott elections.


“My response was tell the truth, you’re boycotting the elections because you’re not ready. If you are ready you won’t boycott.”
