Ghana Makes U-Turn On Travel Advisory To Abuja
Ghana has denied and expressed regrets over issuing a travel advisory to its citizen to keep off from Abuja. In a tweet in the early hours of 17th November 2022, the Ghanaian government declared the statement was unauthorized, as its unaware of any threat being posed to its citizens in the nation's capital and regrets any incontinence its previous notice may have caused to the public. Recall on 16th November 2022, the Ministry in its travel advisory had warned its citizens to keep off non-essential travels to Abuja, citing insecurities as a major concern
But in a follow-up advisory tagged, Re: Security Update in Abuja, Nigeria, which the Ministry issued to ‘all media houses,’ the Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration Ministry said it is not aware of any threat targeted at Ghanaians ‘who continue to live in harmony with their Nigerian brothers and sisters.’
