This man abi senator is mad and crazy.
But can i really blame this senator..... HELL NO.
This is what happens when you run around looking for almighty saviour from another place to come and help you solve your problem.
Dul-lardinho 15m Nigerians voted for you, they didn't vote for Obama so stop the I Will crusade and get ur stinky As.s to work.
If only GEJ had achieved just 40% of what he was supposed to, PMB would not have needed to honour Obama's invitation and even G7 in the first instance. Don't you think so?

The only good about PMB visit to USA was refund of our stolen money abroad.
Must we buy weapons from America that is not ready to sell to us? embarassed
Must we disturb other people with our problems even when the solutions are here with us cry undecided

Americans and double standard. Smh!

What about the atrocities committed by the America military in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and in numerous countries around the globe.

What about American atrocities of introducing chaos and ushering jihadist in countries like Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen and so many countries around the globe.

What about American atrocity of wanting to force legalization of Gay marriages down our throat.

The list of atrocities committed by America and it's government is numerous, so stop with double standard.

If the America govt has other reason not to sell us arm, they should say it, instead of using silly excuses...I'm just fed up with their double standard.
Seems you are not current. Most of those soldiers have either been prosecuted, jailed or kicked out of the military. Even the S.O.P and rules of engagement has changed significantly because of it. Most soldiers don't like the change because it practically leaves them vulnerable and defenceless when attacked. Can you say the same about the Nigerian military? You are and i both know what soldiers in Nigeria are capable of. They treat law abiding citizens like criminal in none combat areas; what do you think they'll do in a combat area?

“It is well-documented by the State Department and by respected human rights organisations that Nigerian army personnel have, for many years, engaged in a pattern and practice of gross violations of human rights against the Nigerian people and others, including summary executions of prisoners, indiscriminate attacks against civilians, torture, forced disappearances and rape. Rarely have the perpetrators been prosecuted or punished,” he said

Too true.

But U.S army is not better either.

“I strongly agree with President Buhari about the need to defeat Boko Haram, and I have supported tens of millions of dollars in U.S. aid to Nigeria for that purpose. But rather than suggest that the United States is at fault for not funding murderers and rapists in the Nigerian military, he should face up to his own responsibility to effectively counter Boko Haram. He should direct his attention to the Nigerian military, and the Nigerian courts, and clean up the units implicated in such atrocities.”
Fair words.

All the children born in Sambisa and the APC would have blamed Gej if was still on seat as the couse of this insuilt. Well' the Senator is right sha.
Re: Patrick Leahy, US Senator Calls Nigerian Soldiers ‘rapists’ by sweetgala(m): 10:05am On Jul 25, 2015
Nigerians should be up in arms and let leahy know we would not accept the calling of our astute men in uniform serving in difficult situations without adequate kit such names , make him know such libel would not be tolerated
Re: Patrick Leahy, US Senator Calls Nigerian Soldiers ‘rapists’ by Nobody: 10:08am On Jul 25, 2015
Why are some dumbos castigating Leahy?

Look at this...

Buhari went to visit the US to ask for aid to fight BH...

The US denies the request because they said the Nigerian Military violates Human Rights of which rape is among them...

The US probably ran a history check on Buhari and fund out how he married Aisha at the age of 9...Is that not Child Rape? huh

Buhari was once a soldier in the Nigerian Military.

CONCLUSION: Senator Leahy IS RIGHT!

I've always of d opinion dt America is never a friend of any country especially Africa. They're devil dt gives dollar in order to get $1k.Nigeria should look inward n solve our problems. God bless Nigeria.
Re: Patrick Leahy, US Senator Calls Nigerian Soldiers ‘rapists’ by Tex42(m): 10:21am On Jul 25, 2015
I don't blame the blabber mouth senator, it is our leaders(past and present) I Blame for running to America for every little thing like suckling babies cry out to their mother when they are hungry.

Even a task a lame and blind man could handle, our witless leaders would run to America for help... Make we kukuma tell them make them come colonize us again;go back to the colonial days...

Rubbish!
Re: Patrick Leahy, US Senator Calls Nigerian Soldiers ‘rapists’ by Nobody: 10:24am On Jul 25, 2015
US is no longer relevance from analytical point of view, just as GEJ did, I expected Buhari to meet ties with countries like Russia, China, Korea, India for assistance instead of romancing with failed US /UK who have no good intentions for Nigeria and other Africa countries.

Those prosecutions you mentioned were carried out just to please the media and the rest of the world, they are nothing compared to thousands of atrocities the American government is hiding in classified doc. I'm not saying the Nigerian military didn't commit any atrocity, but that is not enough reason not to sell us arms, there are other reasons behind it.

Here is a video of some of American atrocities which the government didn't want the rest of the world to see u till wikileaks exposes them for their hypocrisy -

Also blame your incumbent president who has been in the army before the ex-president became known.
What did PMB do to sanitize the army when he was in service and after he retired ?

I blame our ex president.
