The United States Mission to Nigeria has announced monitoring and evaluation systems to track any foreign aid in Nigeria.
The announcement comes amid growing scrutiny of the US Agency for International Development (USAID), which has faced allegations of misappropriating taxpayer funds.
US Congressman Scott Perry recently claimed that USAID had funded terrorist organisations, including Boko Haram.
This further follows US President Donald Trump’s 20 January 2025 decision to suspend all foreign aid for 90 days, citing concerns about global destabilisation and misalignment with American interests.
In a post on its verified X (formerly Twitter) handle on Tuesday, the US Mission to Nigeria confirmed that monitoring and evaluation systems are in place to track past assistance provided by the US government.“Comprehensive monitoring and evaluation systems are in place to help verify that U.S. assistance reaches intended recipients,” the mission stated.
