They won't allow Nigeria to purchase weapons from Israel or South Africa but will donate vehicles?

Don't they know that vehicles can be used to run over civilians? Isn't that what they were worried about with the weapons that they said Nigeria shouldn't have?
When did the US say "Nigeria should not have weapons" ?? grin
Wasn't the issue misappropriation of funds ??

Vetoed by the US because of American 'human rights concerns'.

According to a report initially published in a local Nigerian daily, ThisDay, Nigerian government officials believe a large sale was halted because of “unfounded allegations of human rights violations by our troops,” one such official is quoted saying.

“The kind of question that we have to ask is, let’s say we give certain kinds of equipment to the Nigerian military that is then used in a way that affects the human situation,” US ambassador to Nigeria James F. Entwistle told reporters in October, according to the Times.

well they were against the re-sale (Israel selling it to Naija). The US probably wanted to make more money selling it directly to Nigeria wink

Refuse which gift & which self esteem are you talking about? We have some sort of haughtiness & an exaggerated believe of being a great country, giant of Africa & all worth not but in reality, we are just another 3rd world country, depending on grants & loans to solve basic problems! Whatever we make from crude oil is largely frittered away by the ruling class!

It would be a shame if the US donated used Toyota vehicles to the NDLEA. It would be even better if they purchased assembled in Nigeria Dongfengs grin

Really? Everyone knows Nigeria is fantastically corrupt except Nigerians. I don't think Nigerians understand the concept of what corruption is. They are so used to it, the meaning escapes them.

actually, USA is among the top oil producers in the world and so the picture you posted is incorrect in terms of facts. USA definitely made mistakes in getting involved in internal affairs of Iraq and Libya but sorry oil is not the reason.

Hilux makes sense as it is commonly used in Nigeria and so there will be availability of spares, easier maintenance etc. Besides the Hilux is one of the most dependable trucks in its class.
Toyota has a big presence in the US and employs thousands of Americans.
