The Nigeria Police Force has said it is not aware of any security alert issued by the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria warning of an impending attack on the Nigeria capital city, Abuja.
Force PRO, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, while reacting to LEADERSHIP inquiry yesterday, said he was not aware of any security alert.
The Force PRO who did not talk more on the issue, simply replied to our message with, “Not aware” when asked of plans by police to curtail the attack.
