US Sanctions Nigerian, Three Firms Over Alleged ISIS Financing
The United States has designated a Nigerian national, Mukhtar Adamu, and three Nigeria-based companies over alleged links to financing ISIS, as part of a wider crackdown on a transnational terror-financing network.
The sanctioned Nigerian firms are Generation Currency Bureau De Change Limited, Manhattan Bureau De Change Limited, and Nine to Nine Exchange Bureau De Change Limited.
The US State Department said the measures target individuals and entities accused of facilitating cross-border financial transactions for ISIS.
