The United Kingdom has sent out a warning to its citizens living in Nigeria from travelling to Anambra State.

The warning came two days after an attack on the convoy of United State consulate workers in the Ogbaru Local Government Area of the state by yet-to-be-identified gunmen on Tuesday.

It would be recalled that the convoy carried nine Nigerian nationals: five employees of the U.S. Mission to Nigeria and four members of the Nigeria Police Force.

They were travelling in advance of a planned visit by U.S. Mission personnel to a U.S.-funded flood response project in Anambra.
