More and more countries of the international community are choosing not to sell light arms to Nigeria due to its poor human rights record. Nigeria badly needs those weapons if it will overcome terrorism, violent insurgency and banditry. Amnesty International has well documented cases of the Nigerian security forces killing unarmed protesters such as IPOB and Shiites(IMN). While the Nigerian government has designated both groups to be terrorist organisations, the international community does not recognize them as such because the minimum standard of declaring a group to be terrorists is that the group must be armed and engaged in widespread violence. Neither group are armed and both have very few cases of violence.

It is ever becoming apparent to the international community that the Nigerian government may be using arms to crush the voice of dissent, intimidate the opposition and commit human rights abuse.

Nigeria must improve its human rights record if it wants to taken serious by the international community
