Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, whether his Department is taking steps to effect swift and safe passage back to the UK for British nationals in Nigeria as a result of extremist activity in that country.
The FCO keeps its travel advice for Nigeria under close review. While we do not currently advise British nationals in Nigeria to leave, we do advise against travel to some parts of the country because of the security situation. We encourage British nationals in, or planning travel to, Nigeria to consult our travel advice regularly.
