The United States has delivered critical military supplies to Nigeria as part of ongoing efforts to strengthen bilateral security cooperation between the two countries.

The delivery was confirmed by United States Africa Command (AFRICOM), which oversees US military operations across the continent.

In a post on X, formerly Twitter, on Tuesday, AFRICOM said the supplies were handed over to Nigerian partners in Abuja.

U.S. forces delivered critical military supplies to our Nigerian partners in Abuja. This delivery supports Nigeria’s ongoing operations and emphasizes our shared security partnership,” AFRICOM stated.

The post, which tagged US Mission Nigeria, did not disclose the specific nature or quantity of the military
