President Obama’s administration is requesting $720,892,000 as foreign aid for Nigeria for the 2015 fiscal year. 63 per cent of this is being sought for dealing with HIV-AIDS; the largest sector request.

As of 2012, the prevalence rate of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) in Nigeria, among adults aged 15–49 was 3.1 percent. The country has been described as having the second largest number of individuals living with HIV – the virus that causes AIDS.

Foreign assistance requests are originally made by the American “president’s administration, not individual countries, before being submitted to” the United States (US) Congress.

To help you understand how money given to other countries by the US is spent, GlobalPost used data from the US State Department to generate a series of charts showing all the requests for foreign aid made by the US government for the 2015 fiscal year.

Surprised you think this is good news. What this basically means is that this is their 2015 budget for interference in Nigeria. Can you honestly say that you know WHAT that money is to be used for? Of course they'll say it's for HIV, or Ebola or one smokescreen or the other. The reality is that this is their budget for a) Bribing Nigerian govt officials so that American interests receive contracts and concessions b) Funding and arming the clandestine militias which we know for a fact they maintain in the West African sub-region c) Funding of subversive elements and 5th columnists masquerading as political parties, NGOs, 'activists' and media, all of which are serving their interests (which are incongruous with ours).
It's time we understand that these guys are not our friends.

That has been the tradition. Almost all African countries receive yearly handout from USA.
It's a shame though

,They should keep their dirty money we don't need it. What we want is Abacha's loot in their custody.

Forget it that loot is gone for good, take the smokescreen aid as a consolation.
