Secret Service Pulls Out Of Nigeria

ABC

Despite massive counterfeiting of U.S. currency and checks in Nigeria, the American law enforcement agency with principal jurisdiction, the Secret Service, has closed its office in Lagos, Nigeria.

Nigerian officials said the decision has hurt efforts to crack down on criminal rings that produce the counterfeit currency and cheat thousands of Americans with online scams.

Even with the agents moved to “nearby” Pretoria, South Africa this is a weird development.
