๐ณ๐ฌ U.S. Congress Votes to Withhold All Aid to Nigeria
The U.S. House of Representatives has voted to withhold 100% of American assistance to Nigeria over allegations of Christian genocide, a move analysts are calling a diplomatic red alert for Abuja.
Nigeria currently receives around $3 billion in U.S. aid. Experts warn that HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria programmes face serious disruption, alongside food security, education, and jobs โ potentially triggering one of Nigeria's worst humanitarian crises in decades.
The vote signals a sharp deterioration in U.S.-Nigeria relations and puts pressure on the Nigerian government to respond to longstanding concerns over religious violence raised by American lawmakers.
