Wednesday, September 30, 2026 -A United States-based policy advisory and lobbying firm, Von Batten-Montague-York, has said that America’s anti-terror partnership with Nigeria is not open-ended support.
Von Batten-Montague-York made this statement in a post on
its verified X handle on Tuesday.
The firm applauded the administration of President Donald
Trump for selling to Nigeria the weapons it needs to tackle insecurity.
“This is a good development and points to the Trump
administration’s strong desire to counter terrorism in Nigeria.
“Unlike previous administrations, the United States is
selling Nigeria the weapons it needs to take the fight to the terrorists who
threaten both U.S. and Nigerian interests.
“Nevertheless, as stated before Congress, shared interests
in fighting terrorism in Nigeria do not mean US support for the Nigerian
government in all regards.
“Not now-Not Ever will the United States condone Nigerian
President Bola Tinubu’s alleged role in heroin trafficking from Nigeria to the
United States during the 1980s and 1990s. As Venezuela has shown, our interests
are aligned until they are unaligned,” the firm tweeted.
