We are advised by VSO not to discuss political issues on our blogs so I’m not going to go into any detail about the recent bombing in Abuja. I did just want to thank everyone who got in touch to see if I was ok, my thoughts are with the families of those who were at the UN building on Friday and were not so fortunate.
I will say that despite Friday’s terrible actions I do feel safe here in Abuja and that the Programme Office do a good job of keeping us informed of any issues and contacting us when they need to. My phone rang within minutes of the bombing to inform me what had happened and check I was ok. If it was deemed unsafe for us to be here we would either be moved elsewhere or sent home, just to rest those parental fears!
