200 U.S. troops set to land in Nigeria

US to send 200 troops to Nigeria to train African nation’s military

The United States is planning to send about 200 troops to Nigeria to train the African nation’s military to fight Islamist militants, a U.S. official said on Tuesday, weeks after President Donald Trump ordered airstrikes against what he called Islamic State targets.

The U.S. military said last week it sent a small team of troops to Nigeria without specifying a number, marking the first acknowledgment of U.S. forces on the ground since Washington struck by air on Christmas Day.
