Is Owerri safe for solo female travelers?

Owerri has a mixed safety record. It is important to exercise caution, especially at night. Most locals are friendly and helpful, but crime can occasionally be an issue. Use registered taxis for transportation, avoid carrying large amounts of cash, and keep a low profile to prevent drawing attention. Be conscious of your surroundings and stay in well-traveled areas. It is also advised to hire a local guide or stick to popular, tourist-friendly areas. Any travel should be done during daylight hours and unnecessary travel should be avoided after dark.
