US Secretary of State, John Kerry, says the US government will be giving
$600 million as assistance to Nigeria this year. He said this while
speaking at the opening session of the U.S- Nigeria Bi-National
Commission meeting in Washington DC yesterday March 30th.
"Our development assistance this year will top $600 million, and we are
working closely with your leaders – the leaders of your health ministry –
to halt the misery that is spread by HIV/AIDS, by malaria, and by TB.
Our Power Africa Initiative is aimed at strengthening the energy sector,
where shortage in electricity has frustrated the population and impeded
growth" he said
