Nigeria - According to a Daily Times report, the United States has denied concrete military aid to Nigeria's president Muhammadu Buhari.
After a four-day official visit in the United States of America, President Muhammadu Buhari will be returning to Nigeria today with no pledge of concrete military assistance against Boko Haram terrorists from his hosts.
