Jabi Lake Mall has announced that it would shut operations over security threats in Abuja.
The development comes after some foreign missions in Nigeria issued separate security advisories warning of likely terror attacks in Abuja.
The United States Embassy, British High Commission and three other foreign missions issued a warning notice to their citizens to avoid non-essential trips to FCT.
In a statement issued on Thursday, October 27, 2022, the management of the shopping outlet said the decision was taken in the overall interest of the safety of all its staff and customers.
