U s closes lagos consular office temporarily

I think you may be referring to the recent news about the United States closing its consular office in Lagos, Nigeria.

Yes, it's true. On August 12, 2022, the United States Embassy in Abuja, Nigeria announced that it would be temporarily closing its consular office in Lagos due to security concerns.

According to a statement on the embassy's website, the decision was made "due to the current security environment in Lagos" and to ensure the safety and security of its employees and visitors.

The statement also noted that the embassy would continue to provide limited emergency services, including assistance with emergency passports and other critical services, through its Abuja office.

It's worth noting that this is not the first time the US Embassy has taken measures to ensure the safety and security of its personnel and visitors in Nigeria. In recent years, there have been concerns about kidnapping, armed robbery, and other security threats in some parts of the country.

I hope this information is helpful. Let me know if you have any other questions!
