2022-08-17: According to the sources, a nationwide power outage is very likely in the coming days throughout the nation in Nigeria from Wednesday (17 August) as the electricity workers have scheduled an indefinite strike to protest against the federal government failure to meet the demands of the National Union of Electricity Employee.
Heightened security measures as well as disruptions to traffic and public life are to be expected. Violent clashes between protesters and security forces are possible. Travellers are advised to exercise caution, to strictly avoid demonstrations, road blockades, large gatherings, and deployments of security forces, and to follow instructions from security forces.
