American citizens residing and doing business in Nigeria have been asked to avoid lodging or patronising major hotels in the urban cities of the country.
The United States government issued the advisory to its nationals, adding that such hotels are liable to security threats.
This was contained in an emergency warning issued on Friday, adding that Nigerian security agencies are making efforts to prevent any attacks.
It, then, advised the US citizens in Nigeria to be cautious of major hotels, and do a thorough examination of their environment before settling in, adding they should keep a low profile.

It also provide the addresses and telephone numbers of the US embassy in Abuja and the consulate in Lagos in case there is a need for any of the US citizens to seek help.
