Anti-government activists plan to protest at the Ikeja Underbridge in Lagos from 07:00 on Nov. 8. The action is to denounce alleged bad governance and demand the release of activists arrested during previous similar demonstrations. Hundreds may attend the gathering.

An increased security presence and localized transport disruptions are likely near the protest site, including to and from Lagos's Murtala Muhammed International Airport (LOS), which is located next to the protest area. Clashes between protesters and security forces remain possible.

Avoid the demonstration area. Allow extra time to reach destinations, including LOS. Leave the area at the first sign of any confrontation. Heed the instructions of local officials.
