Jabi Lake Mall shut down operation over terrorists’ plan to attack Abuja

The management of the Jabi Lake Mall in the Utako area of Abuja has shut down the mall.

This is due to the security threats in the Federal Capital Territory.

The company announced this post on the mall’s Instagram page @jabilakemallnigeria.

The announcement is coming against the backdrop of security reports by the United States, United Kingdom, Canadian and Australian Embassies that there is an elevated risk of terror attacks in the nation’s capital.

The warnings said the attack would be aimed at government buildings, places of worship, schools and other centres where large crowds gather.

The post read, “To all our valued shoppers, Jabi Lake Mall will be closed today, Thursday, 27 October 2022. This decision has been taken in the overall interest of the safety of all staff and customers of the mall.

“Centre Management is committed to minimising 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 re-opened.

“We apologise for any inconvenience caused and hope to provide you with a quality shopping experience soon. Thank you.”
