In a meeting with delegations from the Association of
Tourism Practitioners of Nigeria in Abuja, Minister of Information and Culture,
Lai Mohammed replied the US Embassy in Nigeria who sent an alert to all its
citizens in Nigeria last week saying they should not to visit 20 states which
they described as a complete "no-go area".
The Minister said
"We are in Nigeria. How can we
believe the claim that 20 states in Nigeria are not safe? That is not correct.
There is no state in Nigeria that is not safe today. Is there any week they are
not killing people in the U.S., by either shooting in schools or driveways or
people committing suicide or mass bombing? How many of these stories do their
media celebrate? If they want to tell their people not to come to Nigeria, it
is not for us to help them propagate it’’ he said
