United States authorities have indicted the Nigeria police, military, and Department of State Services for corruption, human rights violation, and impunity.

“The government regularly utilized disciplinary boards and mechanisms to investigate security force members and hold them accountable for crimes committed on duty, but the results of these accountability mechanisms were not always made public,” US Department of State said.Two of Nigeria’s antigraft agencies – the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission were cited for inconclusive prosecution of public officials charged for corruption.

“Many of the corruption cases, particularly the high-profile ones, remained pending before the courts due to administrative or procedural delays,” the report said, stating that the government deliberately underfunds the judiciary to make it ineffective.

The US has gone beyond its bounds. They can't be the prosecutor & judge at the same time. As much as I have high regards for Americanism, I detest the outright labelling of of our security outfit as corrupt,etc. Are America's own incorruptible,etc.?

Enough of the accusations. They have known this over the years. What actions have they taken against them? What happened between 1967-1970? What have they done about it? Enough of their hypocrisy. FreeMaziNnamdiKanuNow FreeBiafraNow

When we published that the Nigerian Government is no different from a criminal enterprise, UNDSG took offense and pointed out that we were destroying Nigeria's reputation (as if). She failed to learn about Afghanistan.
