Relationship Between Nigeria And US Worsens As Nigeria Cancels U.S Military Training

Tweet

The animosity between the Nigerian government and its American counterpart has deepened with the Nigerian government cancelling a plan to have the United States military train a battalion of the Nigerian army to confront the extremist Boko Haram sect.

No reasons where given by Nigerian officials for the cancelation of the training, but the United State government says it regrets the move.

“At the request of the Nigerian government, the United States will discontinue its training of a Nigerian Army battalion,” the U.S. government, through its embassy in Abuja, said in a statement.

It will be recalled that the Nigerian government had earlier accused the US of not providing sufficient support for its fight against Boko Haram.
