Jabi Lake Mall located in Jabi district of the federal capital territory (FCT) has shut down over security threat in the nation’s capital.
The Mall shut operations days after the US warned its citizens about the possibility of terror attacks in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital.
The federal government had assured that measures are in place to protect citizens, charging them to go about their normal businesses.
In a post on its Instagram page on Thursday, the management of the Jabi Lake Mall said it is reviewing the security situation and would inform customers when it reopens.
“To all our valued shoppers, Jabi Lake Mall will be closed today, Thursday, October 27, 2022. This decision has been taken in the overall interest of the safety of all staff and customers of the mall,” the post reads.
“Centre Management is committed to minimizing any disruptions; however, the safety of our staff and shoppers remains our highest priority.
“Management is constantly reviewing the security situation in consultation with relevant security authorities and will inform you when the mall will be reopened.
“We apologise for any inconvenience caused and hope to provide you with a quality shopping experience soon. Thank you.”
When our correspondent visited the mall, it was not accessible as security men at the entrance turned him back.
