The Pentagon, the United States of America’s military coordinating body, has faulted the claim by President Goodluck Jonathan that Nigeria has applied since early 2014 for assistance to send troops to combat the Boko Haram insurgents.

Rather, Pentagon said over the weekend that discussions on troops to combat the Islamist body was just beginning based on the formation of the Multi National Joint Task Force.

Jonathan had in an interview with the Wall Street Journal said the United States had ignored requests by Nigeria for troops to combat the Boko Haram militants.

He said the country had in early 2014 reached out to the US for assistance, adding: “Are they (America) not fighting ISIS?

“Why can’t they come to Nigeria?

“…they are our friends.

“If Nigeria has a problem, then I expect the US to come and assist us.”

But the Pentagon Press Secretary, Rear Admiral John Kirby, also told the Wall Street Journal that the US was yet to receive an official request for troops from Nigeria.

Kirby said what the US was doing now has been to enter into discussion on how it could participate in the Multi National Joint Task Force with other African nations to assist Nigeria.

Kirby said the task force will be designed to help build up Nigeria’s own counterterrorism capabilities.

He said: “These discussions are really just now starting.

“I can tell you that there are no plans as I speak here… unilaterally to send or to add US troops into Nigeria.”

The day we stop looking up to the US, maybe just maybe we will earn some respect as a nation.

Pls run your country and stop crying for help like a day-old puppy. Mcheeew.

Jona! jona!! jona!!!

Nah how many times I call u?

Anyway, March4Buhari.

His excellency is a serial liar.

From the Fayose Ekiti Audiogate to this one and numerous other lies he says believing people will be bought by his foolish face saving denials after it blows up in his face.

I feel he deliberately allowed the Boko Haram Insurgency to strive as a means of achieving his Political Ambition and recent happenings have vindicated that belief.

Boko Haram left all the way from Borno to Gombe to launch a massive attack and they were not engaged at any Border point until they got to Gombe State Capital and we have the Army, Police and Airforce in the country.

God will save the land from the plans of the Evil ones. Boko Haram grew from a Motorcycle riding Bow and arrow armed ragtag boys to a Mini-IS group with AA guns, Mortar and Mounted Automatic Guns within his 5years and yet the Military Budgetary Allocations have sky-rocketed in his 5years as President and some bastards are wishing he continues.

Spots on bro.

I kept wondering , now i have stopped wondering.

I'm often baffled at people who reduce international relations to "AMERICA SHOULD LEAVE US ALONE!!"

Yes, to a large extent we should work towards a level of independence but the world is a global village. We need the intelligence, resources, funds etc of more advanced nations for a long time. It's the truth. Live with it.

While America assisting us is no excuse to not respect a degree of sovereignty that we are entitled to, it's totally hypocritical to say "Leave us alone" and "Please come and help us na" at the same time. Just saying

U.S can lie. I think our government should stop seeking help where there is non.

Hmmmmm
Joooonaaaah
Y naw

I knew it all long....oga jona can lie ooo.

He didnt lie. Mayb he sent his wife to tell dem and dey didnt understand wat she was saying.

What's the essence of this when the northern elders told and threatened GEJ not to invite the USA to our domestic affairs., is the a smear campaign or to increase GEJ's popularity here, it only goes to show that the northern elite are boko haram, it's no news that some apc people have bought over some legislators to lobby for them I won't be surprised if they say GEJ did not ask to buy weapons from them and was turned down all because he refused to sign their so call gay rights, APC IS A DEVIL PARTY AND THEY ARE THE ENEMY'S OF NIGERIA.

I don't know why and how America can categorically deny that President Jonathan didn't request for their help in early 2014 when in actual fact, the present government had relied heavily on America for support. Haba!!
The president's handlers should give a robust response to America on this rebuttal.

All of you that are talking bad about Jonathan arw suffering brain disease, cos most of you dont know what is happening. ... American want Jonathan to make a very dangerous negotiation with them like how they scattered libya till today

The issue with people with maggot infected brains like you is that you can't read and comprehend before commenting.

JonaTAN the lying crook made an allegation that he had requested America's support since 2014 and they have come forward to deny such demand took place and you're here talking gibberish, Libyans brought what happened to rhem upon themselves when they felt the only way to push out gadaffi was to carry arms against him and America and the west saw an opening they have waiting to exploit over the years.

They came to Chad? fa.g.got I've advise you to seek commonsense where it can found even if you will borrow from the dogs on the street. I guess you're the one who took the letter of request for support to Washington on GEJ's behalf.

Moronic programmed dolt.
