No be us ooo: US Says No ‘Arms Deal Embargo’ On Nigeria

The United States on Friday said the ideas that there are arms deal embargo on Nigeria are not true, insisting that no country is doing more to support Nigeria in its fight against terror that the American government.

There have been rumours that the United States had placed embargo on sales of arms to Nigeria and that it had prevented the oil rich nation from obtaining arms to prosecute a counter terrorism operation in the north-east a major terrorist enclave. The region has been under attack by a terrorist group Boko Haram for over five years now.

Relations between both countries are said to have witnessed setbacks as a result of the arms deal controversies, something that has also been linked with the abrupt termination of a training programme for Nigeria’s battalion few months ago.- ChannelsTV
