Nigeria - President Muhammadu Buhari on Wednesday said the United States’ (US) Leahy Law “aided and abetted” the campaign of bloodletting of Boko Haram.
According to Wikipedia, the Leahy Law is “a human rights law that prohibits the US Department of State and Department of Defence from providing military assistance to foreign military units that violate human rights with impunity”.
Speaking at the United States Institute for Peace (USIP), Buhari urged the US government to review the law so that it could provide the needed assistance to Nigeria to crush Boko Haram.
“On the issue of terrorism, Nigerians have lived with fear and insecurity for far too long. The human and material costs of the insurgency in my country and to my people are staggering and unacceptable,” he said.
