While in the US,
president
Buhari criticized the Leahy Law - a U.S. human rights law that
prohibits the U.S. Department of State and Department of Defense from
providing military assistance to foreign military units that violate
human rights. Reacting, the sponsor of the Law, US Senator Patrick Leahy
(the law is named after him) said Buhari is misguided in his criticism
as the law, which has so far stopped the US govt from assisting Nigeria
in the war against Boko Haram, can't be blamed for the atrocities
committed by the 'murderers and rapists in the Nigerian military'.
