Visa operations at the U.S. Embassy in Abuja have been put on hold today due to the threat of demonstrations in the city.
The Embassy released a statement on Wednesday morning confirming that no interviews will take place while the potential for unrest remains high.
The cancellation applies specifically to the Abuja office for Wednesday, March 4. No specific details about the protests were given, but the Embassy is treating the risk seriously.
The Embassy will reach out directly to everyone who was supposed to appear today. Your application is still valid; you will simply be given a new time to come in.
The public is advised to avoid the area around the Embassy during protests and to check for updates before traveling for future appointments.
For those in critical need of assistance, the Embassy remains reachable via their official website or their emergency contact number (+234 209 461 4328).
