Mr Antony Blinken, the U.S. Deputy Secretary of State, on Friday described Nigeria as the leader of other countries in the fight against terrorism.

Blinken, who hailed Nigeria’s anti-terrorism stance, spoke to State House Correspondents after a visit to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo in Abuja on Friday.

The U.S. Deputy Secretary of State is in Nigeria ahead of Saturday’s Security Summit to be hosted by President Muhammadu Buhari.

“Now here we have this very important security summit that Nigeria is hosting, with countries around the world attending.

“This is an evidence of the strength of the Nigerian leadership, with the effort that the President and the Vice President are making to strengthen the economy, fight corruption and deal with the security challenges”, he said.

He further hailed the relationship between Nigeria and the U.S. since Buhari’s inauguration as Nigeria’s President.

“I was here just a little less than a year ago in preparation for President Buhari’s visit to Washington and since then we have seen the relationship between Nigeria and the U.S. grow deeper and stronger”, he stated.

Nigerian government is so concerned about what other countries ( especially) USA thinks about them. When they included us in their state terrorist list, gej panicked nd was pleading with everybody until our name was removed, nd now this news, pmb will consider this as a good thing, but one thing is clear, USA is not all that important to our national interest, if European union or china says something wrong about us, then we can panic cos we the buisness with them the most. But 4 USA, no thanks

pmb is like Saul in the old testament. God said kill them all, but he kept the best for himself. In Nigeria, we are saying fight them corruption all, but pmb is relooting the looted loots, without any accountability, while the zombies are hailing him. Meanwhile his initial regime, both as ptf chairman, his corrupt pals/ ministers are corrupt, his election was sponsored with corrupt funds and his family are round tripping forex exchange illegally in the name of BDC agent. Only God will open our eyes and deliver us from this shackles of bondage.
