Firstly, there is no evidence Buhari ever collected that money from them. He was warned sternly not to take loans from the EU or US.
Secondly UK aid is OUR MONEY. UK can never aid Nigeria because to put it simply all it has is ours. Our exploited wealth. We know this so they should please come up with another deception because this "aid" one has ran its course.

Una dey talk tough now. No be because of the money Buhari come dey wait for Downing Street domot ?

jameseva:
I'm gonn tell you whatsup and I need you to listen attentively!!

CHINA is the new sexy! They rose up without aids from the west, taking over territories once controlled by the west, Now effortlessly pushing Yuan to compete with the USD and you think the west will be happy with the growing relationship of Nigeria and China THINK AGAIN!!

Whatever happens though, china has done their homework, push themselves way beyond the kinda country some west policies might limit...Yes! They have gotten out of hand!!

Check the western news channels and tell me the last time they reported anything positive about china! They were forced to report china's HD images of the moon for just a few hours and during offpeak news sessions..If the west were the first to obtain this HD images, it will be the major highlight of CNN, BBC, France24 and the likes for at least a week!

While I sincerely applaud how much the west have ruthlessly pushed themselves to the top of the world ladder economically, militarily and the likes, this their crap of You are either with us or against us is absolute CRAP!!

MEANWHILE, The nonsense up there looks more like a JSS3 student trying his hands on long essays *No Coherence*

You know what amazes me ? If Gej was in power and a foreign press says similar things about him, most people will rejoice and praise the West.
It's this same set of people that were rejoicing because Buhari sits close to Obama. It has become a campaign tool. When Buhari went to visit USA, he even thanked them for making it possible for him to be president. I don't know whether it's inferiority complex or whatever.
However, if we are happy when the West speaks well about Buhari's government, why do we now cite all form of conspiracy theory when they bring out flaws in his government

If that is true, they are only be pain that our dear president can get help outside USA & UK.
Nigerians indeed have come of age. They are now in China to talk for themselves not usa or uk talking for them. USA & UK we no were u know. U collect from same place.

Who are expected to share a similar view as this guy? I guess only inconsolable Wailing Cankerworms...

Put a little truth in their midst and they scatter in a thousand different ways, scampering for safety, like demons on sighting an exorcist.

My brother, where is the truth? cos I've searched for it.. I couldn't find it.

omenka:
Imagine. Even the government's strongest critics have accepted Buhari has done exceedingly well with the war against BH. But with the quote above, what more does one needs to prove this is a poorly executed hatchet job??

The writer probably knows nothing about Bornu or the NE but simply typed the scripts as he was told.

Who paid for it- Diezani? Jonathan? Whatever it is, I see the hand of Israelites written all over it. Only them have the audacity to tell or sponsor such bold faced LIES!!

Those devilish jews I think they are losing mossat spies that's why they want to spoil Buharis Image

that is why we cannot allow people like u take political positions in this country. Imperialist and brain washed africans still carrying the remnants of colonialism with them around. Because if u do, u r likely to sell this nation out to colonial western exploiters.

[b]Much of the aid Britain provides to Nigeria is aimed at helping the country’s security forces to become more effective at tackling Boko Haram, which boasts of its links with Islamic State (Isil) and achieved international notoriety two years ago after kidnapping 276 schoolgirls in northern Nigeria two years ago.

• Boko Haram demands '$50m ransom' for release of kidnapped Chibok schoolgirls

Scores of British military personnel – including members of the Special Forces – are based in Nigeria helping to train the military to tackle Boko Haram. But despite Mr Buhari’s pledge during last year’s general election campaign that he would make tackling Boko Haram one of his top priorities, there is growing concern among Western officials that the Nigerian military is failing to take effective action against the terrorists.

This has resulted in Boko Haram now being regarded as the world’s deadliest terrorist organisation, responsible for more deaths than Isil. There are now reports that the group is trying to train kidnapped children to act as suicide bombers.[/b]

Deadliest terror organization in the world, responsible for more deaths than ISIS?? Its not by force to open mouth abeg. BH has bn stated as responsible for around 13,000 deaths, SINCE 2009, with some of those who made the assessments stating disclaimers such as “Relying on press reports of violence presents methodological limitations. There is a dearth of accurate reporting across certain regions, death tolls are imprecise, and accounts of incidents vary. There is the potential for political manipulation of media.” And that some of their "categories overlap”, and therefore “deaths may be counted in more than one category”.
And for ISIS, nearly 19,000 civilians were killed in Iraq BETWEEN January 2014 AND October 2015 -- a toll the United Nations calls "staggering" in a new report.

The report outlined the horrific impact that Iraq's ongoing conflict is having on its civilian population.
Much of the suffering was attributed to ISIS, the brutal Islamist terror group which has declared an Islamic caliphate across the vast stretches of territory it holds in Iraq and neighboring Syria.
The report also estimated that ISIS holds about 3,500 slaves and said it continues to subject women and children to sexual violence, particularly in the form of sexual slavery.
Other numbers in the report are mind-boggling. In the 21-month period in Iraq:
• At least 18,802 civilians were killed, about half of them in Baghdad.
• Another 36,245 were injured.
• About 3.2 million people were internally displaced, including a million school-aged children.
The actual figures could be much higher, the report said.

“This is a scandal in the making," explained a senior U.S. official. "There is no doubt the growing strength of Boko Haram is because President Buhari is far more interested in settling scores with his political opponents that concentrating his energy on defeating terrorists,” “The result is that Nigeria is starting to look more and more like a police state while Boko Haram just goes from strength to strength.”

• The Boko Haram suicide bomber who survived her deadly mission

Another Western diplomat added: “If Buhari was serious about fighting corruption he would be focusing all of his efforts on targeting corruption that is impeding Nigeria’s ability to focus its efforts on tackling Boko Haram.”

Accusations that Nigeria is abusing British aid will add to the growing controversy over Downing Street’s commitment to spend 0.7 percent of GDP on the foreign aid budget. Last week the Telegraph reported that DFID was under pressure to cancel £200 million of foreign aid to Tanzania following concerns over a widely condemned election.

This resulted in Dr Liam Fox, the former Defence Secretary, accusing the government of “spraying money around” simply to achieve the 0.7 per cent target.

Western officials have expressed concern about Mr Buhari’s increasingly autocratic style of government since he came to power last year. A retired major-general, Mr Buhari, 73, previously headed a brutal military dictatorship following a coup in December 1983, which lasted until he was overthrown by another coup in 1985.

Now political opponents claim he is returning to his old dictatorial ways, abusing British aid meant to improve Nigeria’s ability to tackle Boko Haram to consolidate his hold on power.

Apart from the concerns over British aid, American officials are also angry that $2.1 billion of aid given to the Nigerian military to tackle Boko Haram has not been properly accounted for.

Mr Buhari’s claim that he is winning the war against Boko Haram - recently claimed the group no longer poses a serious threat - has been undermined by recent revelations the Nigerian authorities have tried to cover up the fact that hundreds more schoolchildren have been abducted by Boko Haram.

Human rights activists have no confirmed that around 400 women and children were abducted last year by militants from the Nigerian town of Damasak.

It is now believed that some of these children may have been trained as suicide bombers. U.S. counter-terrorism experts say at least 105 women and girls trained by Boko Haram have taken part in suicide attacks since June 2014.[/b]

Let them keep being angry. As one poster said, all this "AID MONEY"is our money that theyve stolen. N it's like we r too blind to realize that they're always overly touchy about any conflict in the world that they don't have direct input into and control over (America this is your sub). Always looking 4 where to chook mouth n form godfather. See what they did more than 10 years ago in Iraq n the Middle East. Their own version of help dey always get comma

OP when next you're offered to be paid to spread lies and propaganda it's ok to say no. The chicken change is never worth it.

SleekMallam:

Do you even understand the extent your government goes to suppress news of boko harem all in an effort not to embarrass a general that rushed to claim technical victory? Few well meaning Nigerians know this but are scared to be set up and labelled boko harem hence, Intel is being leaked while alerting civilised societies. The world is truly seeing a clanish and dictatorial Buhari in HD.

Abeg when last you hear bomb blast

That's theoretically possible but a near practical impossibility, reasons are the kanuri people are physiologically different from the Fulani. The BH is dominated by the kanuris and we are talking of the Fulani's here.Let's play a game,if you are to pull off such thing how would you go about it humour me.

Here you go: Fulani Herdsmen Confess To Membership Of Boko Haram - http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/04/fulani-herdsmen-confess-membership-boko-haram/

Here you go: Fulani Herdsmen Confess To Membership Of Boko Haram - http://www.vanguardngr.com/2014/04/fulani-herdsmen-confess-membership-boko-haram/

You have succeeded in showing me an instance that actually happened in a state in the Northeast, but one confession from taraba does not mean the issue elsewhere is a BH attack masqueraded as herdsmen.
lemme school you,the issue of farmers and herdsmen has been with us for years. It is safe to say that the taraba issue was a mistaken identity.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/04/12/nigeria-using-uk-aid-to-persecute-presidents-political-foes-rath/?%20

The United States ambassador to Nigeria, Mr James Entwistle who was at the roundtable discussion distanced the American government from a report published by UK newspaper,The Telegraph, which claimed that the US and other western governments were displeased with the President Muhammadu Buhari administration.

The Telegraph piece had accused the Buhari government of using funds received from the United Kingdom to persecute political opponents rather than equip the military to fight Boko Haram. An unnamed US official was also quoted to have said Buhari was allowing the Boko Haram threat worsen while he is busy settling political scores.

US Ambassador Entwistle while denouncing the report said it did not reflect the the position of the American government concerning the Buhari administration.
