Description

Christmas travel in Nigeria was once shaped mainly by the cost of transport and fuel, but this year, fear has taken center stage. 

Reports of kidnappings, bandit attacks, and ambushes on major highways have turned what should be a season of reunion into one of anxiety, forcing many families to postpone or cancel trips. 

On Nigeria Daily, we examine how insecurity is changing festive travel plans, the steps security agencies say they are taking, and what this fear means for the everyday lives of Nigerians.
