The United Kingdom has lifted travel restrictions on Kaduna State, moving it from the “Red” to the “Amber” category in its travel advisory
The change now allows British citizens to travel freely to the state.
The announcement was made on Wednesday by Cynthia Rowe, Development Director of the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), during the signing of a new Kaduna Mutual Accountability Framework (KaMAF) with the state government in Kaduna.
Rowe explained that Kaduna had been classified as “Red” since 2022 due to security concerns but was reclassified as “Amber” following significant improvements in the state’s security situation. She described the change as recognition of Governor Uba Sani’s efforts in addressing insecurity and said it sends a strong signal to prospective investors.
The KaMAF agreement, jointly signed by Governor Sani and Rowe, aims to build on existing progress in governance, health, education, and agriculture.
