B’Haram: US probes foreign aid use in Nigeria
The United States Mission to Nigeria has launched an investigation into the utilization of past aid allocated to Nigeria and other countries.
This follows US President Donald Trump’s decision on January 20, 2025, to suspend all foreign aid for 90 days, citing concerns about global destabilization and misalignment with American interests.
In a post on its verified X (formerly Twitter) handle on Tuesday, the US Mission to Nigeria confirmed that monitoring systems are in place to track past assistance provided by the US government.

“Comprehensive monitoring and evaluation systems are in place to help verify that U.S. assistance reaches intended recipients,” the mission stated.
The US Mission also condemned the ongoing violence perpetrated by Boko Haram in Nigeria, declaring, “The United States condemns the violence and blatant disregard for human life perpetrated by Boko Haram and other terrorist groups in Nigeria and the region.”
The statement further highlighted Boko Haram’s official designation as a Foreign Terrorist Organization by the US Secretary of State on November 14, 2013.
The designation aims to block the group’s assets, restrict its fundraising, prosecute its members, and prevent their travel to the United States.
