Can this be a joke? Which country in the world will shutdown for 3 days because of an economic meeting?
As a country, We love to make mockery of everything.

@Sam, I think you are making a mockery of this situation. When a Nation has peculiar challenges like Nigeria has presently, she takes peculiar decisions. No, it is not a joke.
PIUS,
WHAT IS THIS?
AM SUPRISED
I think this is a good decision as a step towards effective security measure in and around Abuja. There may be an attempt to embarras our dear president further before the whole world thus any strategy adopted is very much welcome.
Bravo my presido.
@olayinka what kind of crazy talk is that? If you have nothing constructive to contribute why not just shut up,@ sam read it again, only the FCT is affected and am sure we all don’t want the desperate people to use this international event to score a cheap and evil point by carrying out their bombing there.
